How many of you people out there
Been hurt in some kind of love affair
And how many times did you swear that you'd never love again
How many lonely, sleepless nights
How many lies, how many fights
And why would you want to put yourself through all of 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 you've been thinking of all day
Why don't we 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
I'm starting up a brand new day
Turn the clock to zero, boss
The river's wide, we'll swim across
We're starting 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"
You say time for reflection
You say, baby wait a minute, wait a minute
Wait a minute, wait a minute
Wait a minute, wait a minute
We 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'm 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
We're starting up a brand new day (it's 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 the bat and you're the cave
You're the beach and I'm the wave (brand new day)
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, yeah, yeah, yeah
(Stand up) I'm the present to your future
You're the wound and I'm the suture (brand new day)
You're the magnet to my pole
I'm the devil in your soul
(Stand up) you're the pupil, I'm the teacher
You're the church and I'm the preacher (it's a brand new day)
You're the flower I'm the rain
You're the tunnel I'm the train
Stand up all you lovers in the world yeah
Stand up and be counted every boy and every girl
Stand up all you lovers in the world yeah
Starting up a brand new day
You're the crop to my rotation (it's a brand new day)
You're the sum of my equation
I'm the answer to your question (starting up a brand new day)
If you follow my suggestion
We can turn this ship around (it's a brand new day)
We'll go up instead of down
You're the pan and I'm the handle (we starting up a brand new day)
