a new day

In the silence of the morning
Just before the light of day
I see the colors of a new beginning
The chance to go another way

On the red horizon
Below a sky of pink and blue
I contemplate my options
And face the path for me or You

The sun begins its ascension
And the colors begin to fade
I must take careful consideration
Of the path I'll take today

For if I go on my own
Loneliness will surely follow
And if I can't walk with You
I can't face tomorrow

In the silence of the morning
I hear You calling out my name
And my choice seems so simple
But it's a burden just the same.
