A NEW LIFE…
by Linda Eder (lucy of Jekyll & Hyde)
A new life… What I wouldn’t give to have a new life…
One thing I have learned as I go through life:
nothing is for free along the way…
A new start… That’s the thing I need, to give me new heart
half a chance in life to find a new part, just a simple role that I can play.
A new hope… Something to convince me to renew hope
A new day, bright enough to help me find my way
A new chance… One that maybe has a touch of romance.
Where can it be, the chance for me?
A new dream… I have one I know that very few dreams
I would like to see that overdue dream even though it never may come true…
A new love… Though I know there’s no such thing as true love…
Even so, although I never knew love; still I feel that one dream is my due!
A new world… This one thing I want to ask of you, world…
Once, before it’s time to say adieu, world…
One sweet chance to prove the cynics wrong!
A new life… More and more, I’m sure as I go through life…
Just to play the game and to pursue life…
Just to share its pleasures and belong!
That’s what I’ve been here for all along…
Each day’s a brand new life!
