as good as new, my love for you
and keeping it that way is my intention
as good as new, my love for you
and keeping it that way is my intention
and you feel a strange attraction; the air is vibrant and electrified
the voice was husky and it sounded quite exciting
where the high and healing winds blow
and now they've come to take me, come to break me
none of my friends would be so stupidly impatient
I hear the doorbell ring and suddenly the panic takes me
the sound so ominously tearing through the silence
so you're blue, but I can't take a chance on a chick like you
hiding their shame behind hollow laughter while you are crying alone in your bed
mamma mia, here I go again! my my, how can I resist you?
it's funny, but I had no sense of living without aim
the day before you came
the signal's sounding once again and someone tries the doorknob
and you find me beautiful and irresistible, a giant creature that forever seems to grow in size
we were young and full of life and none of us prepared to die
I thought that our love was at an end, but here I am again
giving out a spark
across the room, your eyes are glowing in the dark
half awake, and half in dreams, seeing long forgotten scenes
every day I knew a lot of tired shopping feet, but come the night they will be dancing in the neon light
and now they've come to take me, come to break me
dazzled by the crazy magic, they're grabbing pieces of the fatted calf
each time when he speaks his mind
she pats his head
far away, he rambles on; I feel my throat go dry
no taste for humble pie
where the high and healing winds blow
and in the wind, if you listen hard, you'll hear me laugh
there's not, I think, a single episode of Dallas that I didn't see
soldiers write the songs that soldiers sing
head over heels, setting the pace
it's so strange, when you're down, and lying on the floor,
how you rise, shake your head, get up and ask for more
just like a child, stubborn and misconceiving
