A New England

I was twenty-one years when I wrote this song

I'm twentytwo now, but I won't be for long

People ask me when will you grow up to be a man

But all the girls I loved at school are already pushing prams

I loved you then as I love you still

'Tho I put you on a pedastal, they put you on the pill

I don't feel bad about letting you go

I just feel bad about letting you know

I don't want to change the world

I'm not looking for a new england

I'm just looking for another girl

I loved the words you wrote to me

But that was bloody yesterday

I can't survive on what you send

Everytime you need a friend

I saw two shooting stars last night

I wished on them but that were only satellites

Is it wrong to wish on space hardare?

I wish, I wish, I wish you'd care

I don't want to change the world

I'm not looking for a new england

I'm just looking for another girl

Once upon a time at home

I sat beside the telephone

Waiting for someone to pull me through

When the bastard didn't ring,

I knew it wasn't you

I don't want to change the world

I'm not looking for a new england

I'm just looking for another girl
