A Brand New Song - John Mellencamp
In the sweet belly of the moment
When you realize you've changed
And everything you're after
Has gone down the drain
You're nothing more than just a drifter
As you walk down your road
Not exactly the picture
You thought you'd be sending home
All these places mean nothing
It's the people we count on
Here without a purpose
Gone without a song
Yesterday seemed so sudden
Today seems to have no end
So you b_tton up the b_ttons
Say goodbye to what has been
Those black and white pictures
That file through your veins
That's the trouble with the future
It always stays the same
And your pride's been shaken
And those people you count on
Here without a purpose
And gone without a song
Without a song
In the uncertainty of a new day
Opportunity may howl
You hear the voice in a new way
In the past you didn't know how
You're old enough to know the difference
Between and enemy and a friend
With the eyes of knowledge upon you
You're able to stand up again
Life is always in motion
And there's new people to count on
Here you may find a purpose
And sing a brand new song
Life is always in motion
New people to count on
Here we find a purpose
To sing a brand new song
Brand new song
Sing a brand new song
