New day dawning, wonder what it holds for me,
|
Sun is shining, Don't think that it will shine on me
|
I look around, nothing seems to have changed,
|
This dirty town, hasn't some how rearranged
|
|
And I stand up, but I get knocked straight back down,
|
"Just give it up" they say, "We just don't want you around
|
Not one of us, and we don't like to share."
|
Mouthful of dust, but I'll get even I swear...
|
|
I hear your voice, call my name, but in my heart, It's still pouring rain,
|
And it ain't pretty,no it ain't pretty...
|
|
But you say "Hold on, hold on... believe me,
|
All the plans against you one by one, will come undone."
|
I shall overcome.
|
|
Through my tears, I try to see your face,
|
But doubt and fear come calling, and crowd my head with words of hate,
|
Scream out please! Don't leave me hear alone,
|
Down on my knees, without you, without hope...
|
|
I hear your voice, call my name, but in my heart, It's still pouring rain,
|
And it ain't pretty,no it ain't pretty...
|
|
But you say "Hold on, hold on... believe me,
|
Love is here and I won't let you down, stand your ground.
|
Hold on, hold on... It's easy,
|
All the plans against you one by one, will come undone."
|
I know I shall overcome.
|
|
Just in time you call my name, pull myself up, to fight again.
|
I'll never let you down...
|
|
But you say "Hold on, hold on... believe me,
|
Love is here and I won't let you down, stand your ground.
|
Hold on, hold on... It's easy,
|
All the plans against you one by one, will come undone."
|
I know I shall overcome.
