One foot up sends one foot down the pedal
As I ride into the early hours of day
The sun light laces the horizon
As a new day breaks a night of yesterdays
All around I see few sleepy faces
Some bright as the sun, some lost in gloom of nay
They ask me “tell me if there is a better tomorrow
Where we’ll be no longer slaves or faced to shame
Tell me if I’ll live a day without the harrows
When I’ll sing a happy song with you in the rain”
We see others just as we see colors
Some we care, and some we cannot bother
But life is more than those pretty faces
There’s more to care as we perceive the need to share
Don’t nip the hopes of another budding story
Every flower takes time to bloom and bring some cheer
This is a time to wake better tomorrows
Where there’ll be no slaves or faces down in shame
There will be those days without the painful harrows
When we’ll sing together riding in the rain
To every picture, there’s a story told
To every life that breathes is a God who watches over
One foot up sends one foot down the pedal
As I ride into the early hours of day
The sun’s light has chased the darkness
Into another day of grace, I’ll ride today :)
