A New England Songtext
I was 21 years when I wrote this song
I'm 22 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 in school are already pushing grams

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
I don't want to change the world
I'm not looking for a New England
I'm just looking for another girl [x2]

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 they were only satallites
And wrong to wish on space hardware
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 [x2]

Looking for another girl...
