Introduction

Imagine standing on the edge of something new, with the past fading behind you and the unknown stretching out ahead—this is what “New Horizons” by The Moody Blues captures so beautifully. It’s a song that feels like a gentle push toward the future, full of hope and reflection.

Written by Justin Hayward, the track comes from the album Seventh Sojourn, and it’s one of those songs that speaks directly to the soul. Hayward’s voice, tender yet powerful, wraps around the lyrics like a comforting embrace, urging us to move forward even when the path isn’t clear. The melodies, delicate yet resonant, create a sense of peace, like the calm after a storm.

But what really makes “New Horizons” special is its message. It’s a song about finding light after darkness, about healing and the quiet strength that comes from within. Whether you’re going through a tough time or just need a reminder that better days are ahead, this song feels like a friend who’s been there and understands.

The beauty of “New Horizons” is in its simplicity. It doesn’t need to shout to be heard; its power lies in its subtlety. It’s the kind of song that grows with you, offering different layers of meaning as you go through life’s ups and downs. It’s a reminder that no matter where you are, there’s always a new horizon waiting for you.

Lyrics

Well, I’ve had dreams enough for one
And I’ve got love enough for three
I have my hopes to comfort me
I’ve got my new horizons out to sea
But I’m never gonna lose your precious gift
It will always be that way
‘Cause I know I’m gonna find my peace of mind
Someday
Where is this place that we have found?
Nobody knows where we are bound
I long to hear, I need to see
‘Cause I’ve shed tears too many for me
But I’m never gonna lose your precious gift
It will always be that way
‘Cause I know I’m gonna find my peace of mind
Someday
On the wind, soaring free
Spread your wings, I’m beginning to see
Out of mind, far from view
Beyond the reach of the nightmare come true
Well, I’ve had dreams enough for one
And I’ve got love enough for three
I have my hopes to comfort me
I’ve got my new horizons out to sea
But I’m never gonna lose your precious gift
It will always be that way
‘Cause I know I’m gonna find my own peace of mind
Someday
Someway
