Lyrics
Somebody New
I just can't believe what you're saying.
I just can't believe that it's true.
After all this time together
I thought we were forever but now
you say you want something new.
You're telling me "it's not you, it's me".
I tell you boy, I have to agree.
If you're in doubt brother, can't you see
I would gladly see it through.
But if you see it as a waste of time,
Don't bother talkin' 'bout the 'yours & mine'.
You can take it all and I'll be just fine....
On my own.
If you're right.......... and I'm wrong........
If I've been wasting precious moments with you.
If you're right........
I'll pack up everything in sight and I'll just walk away
and find somebody new.
Can we work it out?
Can we try to work it out baby?
Have we even tried to talk it through?
Can we work it out?
Can we talk it over?
Or is it way beyond repair,
Do you and I no longer care?
You're telling me you need a little time,
a little space to maybe clear your mind.
But if you think you're leaving me behind
I would rather end it now.
Don't leave me hanging on the line to dry
Just because you think I'm gonna cry.
I don't really need a reason why,
I just need the truth.
(Chorus)
