| How many of you people out there
|
| Been hurt in some kind of love affair
|
| And how many times do you swear that you’ll never love again?
|
| How many lonely, sleepless nights
|
| How many lies, how many fights
|
| And why would you want to put yourself through all that again?
|
| «Love is pain,» I hear you say
|
| Love has a cruel and bitter way
|
| Of paying you back for all the faith you ever had in your brain
|
| How could it be that what you need the most
|
| Can leave you feeling just like a ghost?
|
| You never want to feel so sad and lost again
|
| One day you could be looking
|
| Through an old book in rainy weather
|
| You see a picture of her smiling at you
|
| When you were still together
|
| You could be walking down the street
|
| And who should you chance to meet
|
| But that same old smile that you’ve been thinking of all day
|
| You can turn the clock to zero, honey
|
| I’ll sell the stock, we’ll spend all the money
|
| We’re starting up a brand new day
|
| Turn the clock all the way back
|
| I wonder if she’ll take me back
|
| I’m thinking in a brand new way
|
| Turn the clock to zero, sister
|
| You’ll never know how much I missed her
|
| Starting up a brand new day
|
| Turn the clock to zero, boss
|
| The river’s wide, we’ll swim across
|
| Started up a brand new day
|
| It could happen to you — just like it happened to me
|
| There’s simply no immunity — there’s no guarantee
|
| I say love’s such a force — if you find yourself in it
|
| And sometimes no reflection is there
|
| Baby wait a minute, wait a minute
|
| Wait a minute, wait a minute
|
| Wait a minute, wait a minute
|
| Wait a minute, wait a minute
|
| You can turn the clock to zero, honey
|
| I’ll sell the stock, we’ll spend all the money
|
| We’re starting up a brand new day
|
| Turn the clock to zero, Mac
|
| I begging her to take me back
|
| I’m thinking in a brand new way
|
| Turn the clock to zero, boss
|
| The river’s wide, we’ll swim across
|
| Started up a brand new day
|
| Turn the clock to zero, buddy
|
| Don’t wanna be no fuddy-duddy
|
| Started up a brand new day
|
| I’m the rhythm in your tune
|
| I’m the sun and you’re the moon
|
| I’m a bat and you’re the cave
|
| You’re the beach and I’m the wave
|
| I’m the plow and you’re the land
|
| You’re the glove and I’m the hand
|
| I’m the train and you’re the station
|
| I’m a flagpole to your nation — yeah
|
| I’m the present to your future
|
| You’re the wound and I’m the suture
|
| You’re the magnet to my pole
|
| I’m the devil in your soul
|
| You’re the pupil, I’m the teacher
|
| You’re the church and I’m the preacher
|
| You’re the flower, I’m the rain
|
| You’re the tunnel, I’m the train
|
| Stand up all you lovers in the world
|
| Stand up and be counted every boy and every girl
|
| Stand up all you lovers in the world
|
| Starting up a brand new day
|
| You’re the crop to my rotation
|
| You’re the sum of my equation
|
| I’m the answer to your question
|
| If you follow my suggestion
|
| We can turn this ship around
|
| We’ll go up instead of down
|
| You’re the stair and I’m the handle
|
| You’re the flame and I’m the candle
|
| Stand up all you lovers in the world
|
| Stand up and be counted every boy and every girl
|
| Stand up all you lovers in the world
|
| We’re starting up a brand new day
|
| It’s a brand new day
|
| It’s a brand new day
|
| It’s a brand new day |
