Ralph McTell
Gift of a Brand New Day
[Verse 1]
Hey woman, my woman, open your eyes and smile
Hey lovely, my lovely, stay in the warm awhile
Savour the present we've got to open
Wrapped in a sleepy way
We've got a gift to share together
It's the gift of a brand new day
Gift of a brand new day

[Verse 2]
Hey woman, my woman, we can walk in the rain
Hey lovely, my lovely, search for the sun again
You can make bread, and I can make wine
We'll ask our friends to stay
We've got a gift to share together
It's the gift of a brand new day
Gift of a brand new day

[Bridge]
Mm-making music, making love
And making harmony
Time goes down, time flows down
The long, long road to share with me

[Verse 3]
Hey woman, my woman, we can take the baby out
Hey lovely, my lovely, show him what it's all about
Teach him to love the swan and the squirrel
The magpie and the jay
We've got a gift to share together
It's the gift of a brand new day
Gift of a brand new day
[Bridge]
Making music, making love
And making harmony
Time goes down, time flows down
The long, long road to share with me

[Verse 1]
Hey woman, my woman, open your eyes and smile
Hey lovely, my lovely, stay in the warm awhile
Savour the present we've got to open
Wrapped in a sleepy way
We've got a gift to share together
It's the gift of a brand new day
Gift of a brand new day
