Let's pretend that we have colds
And lie in bed and wear our robes around the house
And breath in basement books of old
And dusty words of stories told about somewhere else

But no one else can see the seams
That sew the air into our dreams
When we are young, when we are

Boy, I can't take your breath away
But I'll show you a brand new way with brand new love
Oh, oh, I can't mend your wounded heart
But I'll give you a brand new start with brand new love, oh, oh, oh

Let's pretend we never lie
And tell our truths and then let's cry real tears this time
We'll stain our lips with the color of wine
And then we kiss and everything is fine again

It's cold outside but we are warm
Inside each other we are born
Oh Jesus Christ, we are

Boy, I can't take your breath away
But I'll show you a brand new way with brand new love
Oh, oh, I can't mend your wounded heart
But I'll give you a brand new start with brand new love, oh, oh

Boy, I can't take your breath away
But I'll show you a brand new way with brand new love
Oh, oh, I can't mend your wounded heart
But I'll give you a brand new start with brand new love

Oh, I can't take your breath away
But I'll show you a brand new way with brand new love
Oh, oh, I can't mend your wounded heart
But I'll give you a brand new start with brand new love, oh, oh, oh
