about

Original Cast Recording. The streets of Vienna, with children playing all around, oblivious to the politics of the world and the danger their parents see on the horizon.

lyrics

It's a new day
Outside the sun is shining
It's a new beginning
People grinning as they walk around the town

It's a new day
Outside the parks are open
Children laughing everywhere
You can't compare the wonders all around

So come and play outside
Let's spend the day outside
Let's make our way outside
Everyone will laugh and sing
It's a new day!
We ought to stay outside
It’s a new day
There’s surprises that the mornings bring

It's a new day
There's an excitement as the wind blows in our faces
And our races take us all over the square
It's a new day
With every corner Comes a lovely new adventure
Which was meant for us to dive in on a dare

We're young and we're alive
We're strong and we will thrive
Our time has just arrived
The sun is high and glistening
It’s a new day
So let’s go play outside
We’ll make our way outside
The day is full and promising

You're young and free, you cannot see
The coming danger all around,
The world we cherish slowly gone undone
A rising sea of frightful change
Is creeping onto our horizon

It's a new day
So let's go running free
This is the place to be
Let's race up to that tree
There's no way you'll catch me
All ready? One, two three
I’m way too fast to see

The promises the mornings bring
It's a new day
Everyone will laugh and sing!

Our lives may change in ways so strange
I fear I never fully can explain
The times are rough, and I know enough
That every time the sun goes down,
I fear I'll never see it rise again

It's a new day
So many things to do, let’s get underway
‘cause it’s a new day
