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 is simply
no immunity
There's no guarantee.
I say love is such
a force if you should find yourself in it
You need some time
for reflection
You say, baby wait
a minute, wait a minute
Wait a minute, wait
a minute
Wait a minute, wait
a minute
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
Starting up a brand
new day
Turn the clock to
zero buddy
Don't wanna be no
fuddy duddy
We're starting 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
I'm the plough 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 the flagpole
to your nation
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
We're 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
And go up instead
of down
You're the pan 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
