Back in John Denver mode.

lyrics

v1:
Don't you feel a little new today
Like everything might be OK
Yesterday, you left it far behind
-----
There's nowhere else you'd rather be
No other people you'd rather see
And there's no chance of running out of time

ch:
You were only waiting to come alive
And it seems this day has finally arrived
You can feel it in the sun, hear it in the way the wind sings
You're an old guitar, with new strings

v2:
You give a little, but you get a lot
You give no thought to what you're not
Yesterday is just a story that we tell
-----
There's no reason that we'd try to leave
There's no one else I'd rather see
than you, today, so come out of your shell

ch:
You were only waiting to come alive
And it seems this day has finally arrived
You can feel it in the sun, hear it in the way the wind sings
You're an old guitar, with new strings
v3:
Don't you feel a little new today
Like everything might be OK
Yesterday is just a song we like to sing

ch:
You were only waiting to come alive
And it seems this day has finally arrived
You can feel it in the sun, hear it in the way the wind sings
You're an old guitar, with new strings
