Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Birds flying high, you know how I feel
Sun in the sky, you know how I feel
Reeds drifting on by, you know how I feel
It's a new dawn, it's a new day, it's a new life for me
And I'm feeling good
[Verse 2]
Fish in the sea, you know how I feel
River running free, you know how I feel
Blossom in the trees, you know how I feel
It's a new dawn, it's a new day, it's a new life for me
And I'm feeling good
[Verse 3]
Dragonflies out in the sun
You know what I mean, don't you know?
Butterflies are all having fun
You know what I mean
Sleep in peace when the day is done
And this old world is a new world and a bold world
For me
[Verse 4]
Stars when you shine, you know how I feel
Scent of the pine, you know how I feel
Yeah, freedom is mine and you know how I feel
It's a new dawn, it's a new day, it's a new life for me
[Outro]
Butterflies, ooh
Oh, ooh
Ooh, ooooh
Freer than you, ooooh
Feeling good
