Birds flyin' high, you know how I feel Sun in the sky, you know how I feel Breeze driftin' on by, you know how I feel Its a new dawn, its a new day, its a new life for me Yeah, its a new dawn its a new day its a new life for me  And I'm feelin' good. Fish in the sea, you know how I feel River runnin' free, you know how I feel Blossom on the tree, you know how I feel Its a new dawn, its a new day, its a new life for me And I'm feelin good. Dragonfly out in the sun, you know what i mean, dont you know Butterflies all havin' fun, you know what I mean Sleepin' peace when day is done, that's what I mean And this old world, is a new world and a bold world for me. Stars when you shine, you know how I feel Scent of the crime, you know how I feel Your freedom is mine, and I know how I feel Its a new dawn, its a new day, its a new life for me. Oh, I'm feelin' good....
