Brand New
Transformed by Grace: Holly Halliwell's Song of Renewal
Lyrics
Remembering when I lived
Reflecting on a time when the singer lived
For myself
Emphasizing a self-centered lifestyle
Thinking ‘bout only me and
Being focused only on oneself without considering others
No one else
Expressing a lack of concern for anyone else
Always trying to fill my cup
Attempting to fulfill personal desires and needs
Still I never felt enough
Despite efforts, feeling incomplete or unsatisfied
Still I never felt enough
Repetition of the struggle to feel fulfilled
Then You came along and found me
A change occurred when someone (possibly a significant other) entered the singer's life
And now there’s not a day when
Expressing a constant sense of hope since the arrival of this person
I don’t feel a hope I couldn’t know
Feeling a hope that was previously unknown
Without Your grace
Attributing this newfound hope to the grace of the mentioned person
Now I feel so good
Currently experiencing a positive emotional state
Got me dancing like I should
Expressing joy and contentment, dancing as a metaphor for happiness
I’m dancing cause I
Linking the dance to the positive emotions being felt
Feel so fine
Feeling fine and enjoying the current state of being
Got me singing all the time
Singing as an expression of happiness
I’m singing cause I
Continuing to sing to affirm a sense of belonging
Know I’m Yours
Acknowledging a sense of belonging and ownership
I’ll never be the same
Highlighting a transformation that has taken place
I’m dancing cause You made me
Dancing as a response to being made new by the mentioned person
I’m dancing cause You made me
Repetition emphasizing the transformative impact
Made me so brand new, so brand new
Summarizing the transformation, becoming brand new
So brand new, so brand new
Repeating the idea of being completely renewed
Everything I used to be ain’t
Stating that the past self is irrevocably gone
Coming back, no
Emphasizing that the past will not return
Now it seems these hollow dreams are
Referring to previous aspirations as unfulfilled and empty
In the past
Acknowledging the past and leaving it behind
Every day You turn the page
Each day brings a new chapter, leaving fear behind
I don’t have to be afraid
No longer fearing the future, trusting the mentioned person
I trust every word You say
Complete trust in the words spoken by the mentioned person
‘Cause You came along and found me
Reiteration of the transformative impact of the mentioned person
And now there’s not a day when
Consistently feeling hope due to the presence of the mentioned person
I don’t feel a hope I couldn’t know
Reflecting on the continuous hope that was unknown before
Without Your grace
Attributing the newfound hope to the grace of the mentioned person
Got me singing like
Expressing the joy of singing
Yeah, Oh
Exclaiming joyfully
You made me new, yeah
Acknowledging the transformative power of the mentioned person
You made me new
Reiterating that the mentioned person has made the singer new
You made me new, yeah
Repetition emphasizing the transformative impact
You made me new
Final confirmation of being made new by the mentioned person
