New Thing

Living in the city these seven years,

Waiting for a change I’ve cried my tears,

You want me to stay right here,

Now I’m looking down the barrel of all my fears.

I’ve got to be honest,

I have tried my hardest,

Would you let me go,

If I can’t stay?

Looking for a new thing,

Spreading my wings like a butterfly,

But I don’t wanna lose you,

We can build a life,

We don’t have to say goodbye,

If we only have today,

I think we should fly away.

I thought we would never change,

But lately all this cosy is feeling strange,

I don’t blame you baby if you don’t wanna lose,

But I can’t leave you either and I don’t wanna choose.

I’ve got to be honest,

I gave you my very best,

Please don’t let me go,

‘Cause I can’t stay.

Looking for a new thing,

Spreading my wings like a butterfly,

But I don’t wanna lose you,

We can build a life,

We don’t have to say goodbye,

If we only have today,

I think we should fly away.

Can’t you see,

Can’t you see,

I’m falling out of love and out of time?

I try to keep running free,

But I’m only ever running in my mind,

Baby I,

Can’t imagine leaving you behind.

Looking for a new thing,

Spreading my wings like a butterfly,

But I don’t wanna lose you,

We can build a life,

We don’t have to say goodbye,

If we only have today,

I think we should fly away.
