A New England

[Verse 1]

I was 21 years when I heard this song

I'm 22 now, but I won't be for long

People ask when will you grow up to understand

But the girls I knew in school are already pushing prams

I loved you then as I love you still

Though I put you on a pedestal

They put you on the pill

I don't feel bad about letting you go

I just feel sad about letting you know

[Chorus]

I don't want to change the world

I'm not looking for a new England

Are you looking for another girl?

I don't want to change the world

I'm not looking for a new England

Are you looking for another girl?

[Verse 2]

I loved the words you wrote to me

But that was bloody yesterday

I can't survive on what you send

Every time you need a friend

I saw two shooting stars last night

I wished on them but they were only satellites

Is it wrong to wish on space hardware?

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

[Chorus]

I don't want to change the world

I'm not looking for a new England

Are you looking for another girl?

I don't want to change the world

I'm not looking for a new England

Are you looking for another girl?

[Verse 3]

My cheeks[?] were full of strange ideas

My mind would satisfy your fears

But everything's got in the way

I never asking for it to stay

Once upon a time at home

I sat beside the telephone

Waiting for someone to pull me through

When it happens and it rang I knew it wasn't you

[Chorus]

I don't want to change the world

I'm not looking for a new England

Are you looking for another girl?

I don't want to change the world

I'm not looking for a new England

Are you looking for another girl?

Looking for another girl

Looking for another girl

Looking for another girl

Looking for another girl
