Brand New Day Lyrics - A Woman's Touch - Thelma Houston

How many of you people out there 

You've been hurt in some kind of love affair 

And how many times do you swear 

You'll never love again? 

How many lonely, sleepless nights? 

How many lies and 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 a 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 him smiling at you 

When you was 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 

Turn the clock to zero, honey 

Sell the stock, spend all the money 

Starting up a brand new day 

Turn the clock all the way back 

Wonder if you'll take me back 

Thinking in a brand new way 

Turn the clock to zero, mister 

Never never know how much I missed you 

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 can happen to you, just like it happened to me 

There's simply no immunity, there's no guarantee 

I say love is such a force that if you find yourself in it 

And sometimes no reflection is there 

But baby wait a minute, wait a minute 

Wait a minute, wait a minute 

Turn the clock to zero, honey 

Sell the stock, spend all the money 

Starting up a brand new day 

Turn the clock to zero, Mac 

I'm begging him to take me back 

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 

Starting up a brand new 

A brand new, 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 

You're the plow and I'm 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 

Stand up all you lovers in the world 

Stand up, stand up and be counted every boy and every girl 

Stand up, stand up all you lovers in the world 

Starting up a brand new day 

I'm the present to your future 

You're the wound and I'm the suture 

I'm the magnet to your 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, stand up all you lovers in the world 

Stand up and be counted every boy and every girl 

Stand up, 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 pan and I'm the handle 

You're the flame and I'm the candle 

Stand up, stand up all you lovers in the world 

Stand up and be counted every boy and every girl 

Stand up, stand up all you lovers in the world 

We're starting up a brand new day 

Stand up, stand up all you lovers in the world 

Starting up a brand new day 

Stand up, stand up all you lovers in the world 

We're starting up a brand new day
