Feeling Good

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
(refrain:)
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
(refrain)
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

Bro the fact that this was never a James Bond opening song is a crime. It’s just perfect

@ittyaviracabraham4607

Exactly

@angeloescobar7617

This is exactly what I thought !! THIS IS PERFECT for a James Bond movie!! ESPECIALLY a Daniel Craig movie. You can tell buble probably made it for it too due to his video. This should’ve been the intro for either casino royale or quantum of solace because those intros sucked. They were rock and This also fits perfectly with skyfall spectre and NTTD intros.
