I've burned my bridges
and I'm free at last
All my chains are
in the past
The new life starts here
(I was trying to get happy
I thought it was hard
Until I found that
in my own back yard
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
/
Users, abusers,
banging at my door
I'm not fighting with them
anymore
The new life starts here
Tempsters and tricksters
wondering how
To seize my attention
they cannot touch me now
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...
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
/
Are you building heaven
or are you building hell?
When that great day comes
will you be able to tell?
The new life starts here)
Citizen, criminal, child
woman or man
The keys to the Kingdom
are in your own hands
The new life starts here
(God of our love
who ignited the sun
Not my will
but thine be done
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...
The new life starts here
The Waterboys are a Scottish rock band formed in 1983 by singer-songwriter and musician Mike Scott. The band's name comes from a line in Lou Reed's song "The Kids" on the album "Berlin". The Waterboys' sound has gone through several phases, influenced by collaborations with different artists over the years. Initially, they were known for their energetic and melodic rock, then they explored Irish folk sounds with the successful album "Fisherman's Blues" (1988), considered a masterpiece of the genre. Subsequently, the band embraced a more intimate and introspective sound, characterized by folk rock influences. After a break in 1993, The Waterboys reunited in 2000 and continue to record and perform successfully. Among the band's most representative songs are "The Whole of the Moon", "Fisherman's Blues", "How Long Will I Love You" and "A Girl Called Johnny".
