Sting - Brand New Day Lyrics
Words and music by stingHow many of you people out thereBeen hurt in some kind of love affairAnd how many times do you swear that youll 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 brainHow 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 againOne 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 youve been thinking of all dayYou can turn the clock to zero, honeyIll sell the stock, well spend all the moneyWere starting up a brand new dayTurn the clock all the way backI wonder if shell take me backIm thinking in a brand new wayTurn the clock to zero, sisterYoull never know how much I missed herStarting up a brand new dayTurn the clock to zero, bossThe rivers wide, well swim acrossStarted up a brand new dayIt could happen to you - just like it happened to meTheres simply no immunity - theres no guaranteeI say loves such a force - if you find yourself in itAnd sometimes no reflection is thereBaby wait a minute, wait a minuteWait a minute, wait a minuteWait a minute, wait a minuteTurn the clock to zero, honeyIll sell the stock, well spend all the moneyWere starting up a brand new dayTurn the clock to zero, macIm begging her to take me backIm thinking in a brand new wayTurn the clock to zero, bossThe rivers wide, well swim acrossStarted up a brand new dayTurn the clock to zero buddyDont wanna be no fuddy duddyStarted up a brand new dayIm the rhythm in your tuneIm the sun and youre the moonIm a bat and youre the caveYoure the beach and Im the waveIm the plow and youre the landYoure the glove and Im the handIm the train and youre the stationIm a flagpole to your nation - yeahStand up all you lovers in the worldStand up and be counted every boy and every girlStand up all you lovers in the worldStarting up a brand new dayIm the present to your futureYoure the wound and Im the sutureYoure the magnet to my poleIm the devil in your soulYoure the pupil Im the teacherYoure the church and Im the preacherYoure the flower Im the rainYoure the tunnel Im the trainStand up all you lovers in the worldStand up and be counted every boy and every girlStand up all you lovers in the worldStarting up a brand new dayYoure the crop to my rotationYoure the sum of my equationIm the answer to your questionIf you follow my suggestionWe can turn this ship aroundWell go up instead of downYoure the pan and Im the handleYoure the flame and Im the candleStand up all you lovers in the worldStand up and be counted every boy and every girlStand up all you lovers in the worldWere starting up a brand new day
