Brand New Day

I don’t need to write a book
'Bout the chances that I took
All the hearts I had to break
I had to live with my mistakes
All the ghosts that haunt my past
All the dreams that didn’t last
Burning candles at both ends, no way to pretend
Watching bad luck take away all my friends
As a boy I never cried
Till the day my mama died
After that I, I left my home
San Francisco all alone
With Eddie, Bill and Dave all gone
Thought I’d put 'em in my song
And maybe to you, well, it don’t mean a thing
It’s about my life that I wanna sing
Hey, hey
I’m feeling okay
Hey, hey
It’s a brand new day, you know
I’m taking it slow
