[Verse 1]
I like the sunrise
'Cause it brings a new day
I like a new day
It brings new hope they say

[Verse 2]
I like the sunrise (I like the sunrise)
Blazin', blazin' in the new sky
Nighttime is weary
Oh, oh and so am I

[Bridge]
Every evenin' I wish upon a star
That my brand-new bright tomorrow isn't very far
When that heavy blue curtain of night
Is raised up high, way out of sight

[Refrain]
I like the sunrise so heavenly

[Verse 1]
I like the sunrise (I like the sunrise)
'Cause it brings a new day
I like a new day
It brings new hope they say
[Verse 2]
I like the sunrise (I like the sunrise)
Blazin', blazin' in the new sky
Nighttime is weary
Oh, oh and so am I

[Trumpet Solo]

[Verse 3]
I like the sunrise
So heavenly to see
I like the sunrise
I hope it likes poor me
