There’s a new moon in my eye
A dark spot in the brightness of the day
Try to catch it in my hand but it fades away
It fades away
And I find that I am strange
I’m not what I had thought I was before
Feel my feet they’re pulling me through that open door
That open door

And the door leads to a road
And the road leads on and on
And I don’t know what to call myself anymore
So I set out on that road
To find what may have gone
Though I don’t know what it is I’m looking for

And newness enters through me like a sun into a garden
O my soul
I feel it moving in me there’s a world inside that’s startin’
O my soul
O my soul

There’s a white rose in my hand
A bright spot in the dark of the unknown
A kind eyed beast walks next to me and I’m not alone
I am not alone

Now I feel the mountains swell
And the wind wails for the world is all awake
And all illusions of the past begin to break
They break and break

And that new moon is not a moon
It’s a shadow of the sun
And I don’t know what to call myself anymore
And the sun is in my heart and the moon is in my mind
Though I don’t know what is I’m looking for

And newness enters through me like a sun into a garden
O my soul
I feel it moving in me there’s a world inside that’s startin’
O my soul
O my soul

I’m one head lifted high
I’m one foot out to sea
One arm into the sky
One leap into eternity

I’m one head lifted high
I’m one foot out to sea
I’m diving in with all of me
Who knows what the fall may bring?

And newness enters through me like a child into a dream land
O my soul
I feel hope I feel fear I feel I still don’t understand
O my soul
O my soul
