Reset the clock

DEFINITION

Start anew. Second chance. As when a power outage stops an electric clock,  you must reset it to the accurate time, so  this phrase implies an update or renewed start. Suggests an optimism for a revised and better future.

“We’ve had our differences but maybe now we can reset the clock and improve our relationship.”
