Roger Whittaker

 

 

Everybody talks about a new world in the morning.

 A new world in the morning so they say.

Now I myself don't talk about a new world in the morning.

A new world in the morning, that's today.

And I can feel a new tomorrow comin' on.

And I don't know why I have to make a song.

Now everybody talks about a new world in the morning.

New world in the morning takes so long.

 

 

I met a man who had a dream he had since he was twenty.

I met that man when he was eighty-one.

 He said too many folks just stand and wait up til the mornin',

Don't they know tomorrow never comes.

And he would feel a new tomorrow coming on.

 And when he'd smile his eyes would twinkle up in thought.

Now everybody talks about a new world in the morning.

New world in the morning take so long.

And I can feel a new tomorrow coming on.


And I don't know why I have to make a song.

Now everybody talks about a new world in the morning.

New world in the morning takes so long.
