What If We Were New? Lyrics by Mr. Big

…The Stories We Could Tell

2014

I recognize the signs
Your baby-blues are vacant
We get along like there is nothing wrong
We've got some baggage that we got from the beginning
I know you know there's ground that we don't walk on

Shutting my mouth
Doing without
Suddenly someone gets a little colder

Well, what if we met tomorrow?
Right out of the wild blue
We'll get high (high) in another life
Baby, what if we were new?

It's like we stumbled being comfortable in Limbo
I miss the slippery twist of mystery, yes
What ever happened to the girl behind the woman?
I know you know the kind of man I used to be

Living out loud
Turn it around
And suddenly someone
Gets a little closer

What if we met tomorrow?
Right out of the wild blue
We'll get high in another life
Baby, what if we were new?

What if we cut up those picture-perfect faces?
Make another me another you
We'll get high (high) in another life
Baby, what if we were new?
Ah yeah

Turn the record over
I'm sick of the same song
I'm playing it too long
Gotta be something better

Well, what if we met tomorrow?
Right out of the wild blue
We'll get high (high) in another life
Baby, what if we were new?

Gotta be somethin' better
Another me
Another you
We'll get high (high) in another life
Baby, what if we were new?
Oh now, what if we would still be something new?
