paroles de chanson The New Life - The Waterboys

I've burned my bridges
And I'm free at last
All my chains are
In the past
The new life starts here

The day is wide open
The sky is blue
The world is a miracle
And so are you
The new life starts here

My papers arrived
Stamped and complete
All previous dispatches
Are obsolete
The new life starts here

I can see my way so clear
Rejoice for...
The new life starts here

There's a war in the Gulf
But it ain't in my head
I just declared a state of
Peace instead
The new life starts here

Tempters and tricksters
Banging at my door
I'm not fighting with them
Anymore
The new life starts here.

Generals, Presidents
How do you do?
I can make it with or
Without you
The new life starts here

I can see my way so clear
Rejoice for me
The new life starts here

Are you under the Mercy?
Are you under attack?
Are you going forward?
Are you going back?
The new life starts here

Are you coming to grips?
Are you coming apart?
Are you listening to fear?
Or to your heart?
The new life starts here

Citizens, criminals,
Child, woman, or man,
The keys to the Kingdom
Are in your own hands
The new life starts here

Mock the devil
Make him sweat!
He hasn't won
The battle yet
The new life starts here

A whole new age in seven more years
A brave new age in ten more years
Rejoice for me
New life starts here.
