Strawbs - New Beginnings lyrics

rate me

I see myself reborn<br />

In every generation<br />

I look to children<br />

For my source and my salvation<br />

And I will build my house of rock<br />

On their foundation stone.<br />

<br />

I can see the new beginning<br />

The universal loser winning<br />

I can hear the children singing<br />

Making a date with tomorrow.<br />

<br />

Once I was blinded<br />

By the light of my reflection<br />

The mirror's eyes were moist<br />

With tears of deep affection<br />

I could not see my way<br />

To make the last connection home.<br />

<br />

The leaves of my life<br />

Have been falling<br />

And time rolls along<br />

Like a wheel<br />

The innocent games<br />

That we once played as kids<br />

Are for real.
