(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.
