The Explorer Song (Show Tune)


from the ABC set Lyrics

1st Chorus:

Here I am on the edge of a new day;
like an explorer;
looking at things in a new kind of way
like an explorer;
seeing the wonder that’s all around me
and all the magic;
hiding away from the spleandour I see,
that would be tragic.

1st Verse:

Look at the birds in the blue April skies;
wonder where they’re flying to?
Look at the flowers that bloom around my
feet. What a wonderful view!

2nd Chorus

So,
here I am on the edge of a new day;
like an explorer;
looking at things in a whole different way
like an explorer;
seeing the beauty beyond my window
and inspiration;
there is oh so much to see and to know;
an inundation.

2nd Verse:

Look at the sea stretching out before me.
How it sparkles in the sun!
Look at the kids splashing about with glee.
Looks as if they’re having fun.

3rd Chorus:

So,
here I am on the edge of a new day;
like an explorer.
Looking at things in a totally new way;
like an explorer.
Having adventures and learning new things
that I will treasure.
Knowing that beyond the sadness that stings,
life’s filled with pleasures;
joy beyond measure
so
here I am on the edge of a new day
let’s see all that there is to see!

Thank you, Jenny. I think that people will always need positive, uplifting messages and there's so little of that in the media nowadays but ABCtales
is a good place to spread sunshine.
