  • Black turns beamy bright
    Turning on the light
    Today is gonna be the day
    You hear somebody say
    We need you wide awake

    Tiptoe over the floor
    What are you waiting for?
    So so and no more
    That's all to be sorry for

    Today is gonna be the day
    You hear somebody say
    We need you wide awake

    You hear the minutes kick and play
    The order of the day
    Is hollering your way

    The window shade
    The nursing aid
    To let it all just work away
    From head to toe
    A shadow grows
    Since forever and a day

    Quiet moments hum
    But some do you wrong

    Today is gonna be the day
    You hear somebody say
    We need you wide awake
    No time for tea or lemonade
    Someone has set the date
    We're only half the way

    Drink a toast to the sun
    To the things that never come
    To the break of the day
    That is all I say Writer/s: Agnes Obel
