Black turns beat me bright

Turning on the light

Today is gonna be the day

You hear somebody say

We need you wide awake

Tiptoe over the floor

What are you waiting for?

So so and no more

That′s all to be, so before

Today is gonna be the day

You hear somebody say

We need you wide awake

You hear the moments kick and play

The order of the day

Is already in your way

The window shade

The nurse and maid

To let it all just work away

From head to toe

Where shadow grows

Since forever and a day

Quiet moments home

Where some do you roam?

Today is gonna be the day

You hear somebody say

We need you right away

No time for tea or lemonade

Someone to set the day

Were only half awake

Drink a toast to the sun

To the things that never come

To the break of the day

That is all that I say
