(lyrics by James Seals; music by James Seals and Dash Crofts, 1978)

From the album TAKIN' IT EASY (1978)

Breakin' in a brand new love takes awhile Those old memories have to die
We're takin' in a brand new realm, that we've never ever had a chance to try
Where all those dreams that you carry 'round can still be a possibility with me
And you'll be free to just take it easy and then slowly you'll learn to live again

Breakin' in a brand new love Breakin' in a love's not easy, this I know
It's heaven though Breakin' in a brand new love

When the rain stops fallin' and the storm is over
And the teardrops you've been cryin' have all gone away
You need somebody to pick up the pieces and erase all the negativity
So that all those qualities of beauty that you are in your mirror
Start reflecting like a star And you are This is us, it's the future
Tell the past-times goodbye, and I know we can make it if we try

Breakin' in a brand new love Movin' in a brand new cycle
Hold me close and tell me so Let me know your love is new
Breakin' in a brand new love Breakin' in a love's a gamble, this I know
I thrive on chances though Breakin' in a brand new love
