Song Change - Feeling Good

After my last post about reframing the rest of the season, I thought I'd change the music from the brooding, somewhat angry Bjork song that was playing all week. Here you go...

Feeling Good
lyrics by Leslie Bricusse and Anthony Newley
performed by Nina Simone (probably the best arrangement and performance of this song, IMO)

Birds flying high, you know how I feel.
Sun in the sky, you know how I feel.
Breeze driftin' on by, you know how I feel.

It's a new dawn. It's a new day.
It's a new life for me, and I'm feeling good.

Fish in the sea, you know how I feel
River running free, you know how I feel
Blossom on the tree, you know how I feel

It's a new dawn. It's a new day.
It's a new life for me, and I'm feeling good.

Dragonfly out in the sun, you know what I mean, don't you know?
Butterflies all havin' fun, you know what I mean.
Sleep in peace when day is done, that's what I mean.
And this old world is a new world and a bold world for me.

Stars when you shine, you know how I feel.
Scent of the pine, you know how I feel.
Oh freedom is mine! And I know how I feel.

It's a new dawn. It's a new day.
It's a new life for me, and I'm feeling good.
