This is like the most beautiful way to process the apocalypse. We exist as a system of memories in pursuit of the new day and finding peace in that promise but acknowledging the fragility of it all.
You are the new day You are the new day I will love you more than me And more than yesterday If you can but prove to me You are the new day Send the sun in time for dawn Let the birds all hail the morning Love of life will urge me say You are the new day When I lay me down at night Knowing we must pay Thoughts occur that this night might Stay yesterday Thoughts that we as humans small Could slow worlds and end it all Lie around me where they fall Before the new day One more day when time is running out For everyone Like a breath I knew would come I reach for The new day Hope is my philosophy Just needs days in which to be Love of life means hope for me Borne on a new day You are the new day Fuente: LyricFind Compositores: John David
I actually sang this song in my middle school choir in 2011 or 2012. But it was just us girls singing, no guys. It was beautiful, my choir teacher arranged it for us so we can sing it in a way that made sense to us musically. She did an awesome job
Black woman sitting here with tears in her eyes in 2018 after hearing this video for the 100th time...ITS SO BEAUTIFUL....THE VOICES OF ANGELS....Not that RACE MATTERS..ITS TO LET THE KING SINGERS KNOW ....THEY TOUCH THE HEARTS OF PEOPLE FROM DIFFERENT WALKS OF LIFES AND GENERATIONS...THE SONGS FROM SOLOMONS!... And yes, WHEN I WOULD HEAR THIS ON PBS.... WOULD STOP WITH WHATEVER I WAS DOING. JUST TO GO AND LISTEN TO THIS SONG.. GOD GIVEN GIFT. AMEN
Gorgeous, emotional, thrilling, and soulful, with those exquisite harmonies. This KS line-up is, in my opinion, the best and certainly my favorite, and greatly missed in 2017.
I first heard this nearly forty years ago ago when I bought an album at an auction for £5 as a 15 year old on his first holiday alone without parents. It was a blind auction and £5 was a lot of money then but this song stuck with me and I still sing it to myself now and thank god for RU-vid and for the gift of this song. Without RU-vid it would have disappeared and only be a memory of me getting stung in Rhyl as a naive 15 year old
Interesting what this woman is always a woman: She can kill with a smile She can wound with her eyes She can ruin your faith with her casual lies And she only reveals what she wants you to see She hides like a child But she's always a woman to me She can lead you to love She can take you or leave you She can ask for the truth But she'll never believe And she'll take what you give her as long as it's free Yeah, she steals like a thief But she's always a woman to me [Chorus:] Oh, she takes care of herself She can wait if she wants She's ahead of her time Oh, and she never gives out And she never gives in She just changes her mind She will promise you more Than the Garden of Eden Then she'll carelessly cut you And laugh while you're bleedin' But she'll bring out the best And the worst you can be Blame it all on yourself Cause she's always a woman to me [Chorus:] Oh, she takes care of herself She can wait if she wants She's ahead of her time Oh, and she never gives out And she never gives in She just changes her mind She is frequently kind And she's suddenly cruel She can do as she pleases She's nobody's fool But she can't be convicted She's earned her degree And the most she will do Is throw shadows at you But she's always a woman to me
In spite of a load of not so good qualities .. she is always a woman, I wonder how many women nowadays will be glad with such qualifications - but the melody and singing is wonderful. And as I'm just a man.. it's rather intriguing and quite politically incorrect. So thanks a lot for this upload .. love it.
