Daybreak, I'm half awake,
Today is all there is,
I'll be out the door, but not before I've kissed the wife and kids,
I've whistled in the dark,
I've known the broken heart,
I've seen the Red Sea part,
And now this sunlight just might turn strangers into friends,
A surprise for sore eyes,
Another place I've never been,
Might feel the old earth shake, (I might feel the old earth shake)
Could miss that lucky break, (can't miss that lucky break)
But I can hardly wait' (hip, hip)

To get up in the morning,
A new world is forming behind these tired eyes,
I'm here and I'm breathing,
Feel my heart beating,
Lucky to be alive.

We'll see, could be the cheque is in the mail,
Wake up, life's too short for you to stay in bed,
Or I', on the slide that ends inside the belly of the whale,
Get up, brush the cobwebs from your sleepy head,
I've know the answered prayer, (I've known the answered prayer)
I've thought no one was there, (I've thought no one was there)
It seem to clear the air' (yes indeed)

When I get up in the morning,
A new world is forming behind these tired eyes,
I'm here and I'm breathing,
Feel my heart beating,
Lucky to be alive,
I don't care if I see rain or the blue sky,
I only know I survived,
Surprise, yeah.

I whistle in the dark,
I've known the broken heart,
I've see the Red Sea part'

When I get up in the morning,
A new world is forming behind these tired eyes,
I'm here and I'm breathing,
Feel my heart beating,
Lucky to be alive,
I don't care if I see rain or the blue sky,
I only know I've survived,
Up in the morning,
A new world is forming behind these tired eyes,
I'm here and I'm breathing,
Feel my heart beating,
Lucky to be alive,
Alive, yeah,
Yeah.

Good morning,
Good morning,
Good morning,
Good morning,
(fade)
