"Everything New"

Leddy Hammock

Inspired by lyrics by Daniel Nahmod to “Everything New” —

“Bring it on — everything new, everything different, everything true. I am ready for my next thing to do. Oh, I know it’s gonna be everything new.

I’m through crying, I’m through waiting. I’m, through hoping against all hope. I’m through longing for something gone that’ll never return. I think I finally learned to bring it on. I think it’s time.

“I’m through grieving, I’m through dreaming that the life I had is ever coming back. And no more wishing on someone else’s star, that’ll never be mine. I think it’s time to bring it on, everything new . . . .

I’ve survived many times before, broken hearts and slammin’ doors. I’ll be all right, yes, I will, once more. Just as I did back then, I’m gonna rise again. So bring it on, everything new, everything different, everything true. I am ready for my next thing to do. Oh, I know, it’s gonna be everything new.”
