All Things New Again - The Wallflowers

New heaven over a brand new sky

New breed of wonder on the vine

Among the living

There is new promise in this night

New arms to hold back the revolution

New eyes to recognize what you’ve become

New blood to recover

A new will to honor all God’s creations

All things are new again

Within and without

All things are new again

New shepherd roaming through the tall grass

A new temple rising through the falling ash

That buries the tracks

Of millions of boots marching in packs

Clear water rolling through the dam’s collapse

Out to the harbor where they’re sailing back

New flag on the mast

Without any secrets, without any past

All things are new again

Within and without

Sooner or later the ending begins

Just then it can be said that all things are new again

New ghost returning to the earth beneath the haze

New poets burning through the lines of every page

I’m an unpainted portrait

I am staring at a new sunset

Without any memories yet

All things are new again

Within and without

Sooner or later the ending begins

Just then it can be said that all things are new again

Within and without

Sooner or later every season ends

Then forever it can be said that all things are new again
