After Yesterday

[Verse 1]
I've spent most of my life as a luxury
Now I've taken the role of necessity
I was taking my time but a new day's come

[Verse 2]
I've been waking up to a little more day
I've been taking my walks with a little more sway
I was taking my time but a new day's come

[Chorus]
Make way for a new day
Make room for a child
Get used to the sound of joy
You're gonna hear it for awhile
We're only here for a while

[Verse 3]
We didn't make ourselves, can't make a single life
We can only make love with all our might
Then we can pass it along, as the new day comes

[Bridge]
After yesterday
We can live here together
After yesterday
In sunny and the other weather
We're closing in on forever

[Outro]
Who'd have known a little boy
Could teach me to believe in joy?
