Brand New Day
How many of you people out thereBeen hurt in some kind of love affairAnd how many times do you swear that you'll never love again?
How many lonely, sleepless nightsHow many lies, how many fightsAnd why would you want to put yourself through all that again?
"Love is pain," I hear you sayLove has a cruel and bitter wayOf paying you back for all the faith you ever had in your brain
How could it be that what you need the mostCan leave you feeling just like a ghost?You never want to feel so sad and lost again
One day you could be lookingThrough an old book in rainy weatherYou see a picture of her smiling at youWhen you were still togetherYou could be walking down the streetAnd who should you chance to meetBut that same old smile that you've been thinking of all day

Turn the clock all the way backI wonder if she'll take me backI'm thinking in a brand new way

It could happen to you - just like it happened to meThere's simply no immunity - there's no guaranteeI say love's such a force - if you find yourself in itAnd sometimes no reflection is there
