New England Lyrics by Billy Bragg

New England Lyrics

    I was twenty one years when i wrote this song
    I'm twenty two now, but i won't be for long
    People ask 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 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
    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
    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

    I don't want to change the world
    I'm not looking for a new england
    I'm just looking for another girl
