Another Day

The arrival of large numbers of Canadians to join Comex called for something special. A few hundred men and women crossing the Atlantic to help restore 'old friendships eroded by time and neglect' is not an everyday occurrence. The 2nd King Edward VII's Own Goorkhas were alerted to this historic event, minds were bent, discussions took place and then, as nearly always happens, a simple solution presented itself. In addition to the well known expression 'no problem', our Canadian cousins had a habit of saying 'another day' for something unimportant that could be put off till tomorrow, and we had a song for Canada. Comex veterans were 'recalled', Brenda Stevens led the singing, and Major Ben Bently conducted the Goorkhas at Queen Elizabeth Barracks, courtesy of the Commanding Officer.

Another day, another dream come true

For everyone; for me and you.

The sun will shine, the clouds will drift away, 

Your dream, my love, is the dawn of each new day.

 

And on and on, as the seasons go their way

Be sure, my love, They’re coming back one day.

All else my fail, But this at least is true,

The dawn of each new day Is dream come true.

 

Stand high, my love, and all your hopes renew

Reach for the stars, and they’ll belong to you.

And the world will smile, While sweet winds kiss your brow,

And you’ll know, my love, that the time to dream is now.

 

Repeat all three verses - and end
