Something New Today

Verse 1

Sleepy eyes open and spread a smile            

Starting to see the world around you            

Whisper a gentle good morning                    

Your reply, a gurgle of joy                 

A wriggle of your cute little nose        

What a happy face to welcome us

​

Chorus

Happy to be here I really feel free                                         

I want to try something new today                                       

You are here for me being near you                                     

You want to see something new today                        

Happy to be here I really feel free                                

I want to sing something new today 

​

Verse 2

Little beginnings so wonderful                      

Every new day your changes amaze us         

Your tiny fingers grasping my thumb            

Staring at your shiny gold ring                       

You’re crying now, what shall we do?           

Snuggle down quietly my precious love

 

Bridge

In these dark times nothing is certain              

But you can be sure we’ll be here for you        

We hope one day you will be free                      

To live your life in the way you please          

Live your life in the way you please

One day you will be free
