New Romantic

I know I said I loved you but I'm thinking I was wrong

I'm the first to admit that I'm still pretty young

And I never meant to hurt you when I wrote you ten love songs

That guy that I could never get, oh his girlfriend was pretty fit

And everyone who knew her loved her so

And I made you leave her for me and now I'm feeling pretty mean

But my mind has fucked me over more times than any man could ever know

Maybe I should give up, give in

Give up trying to be thin

Give up and turn into my mother

God knows I love her

And I'm sorry to whichever man should meet my sorry state

Watch my sturdy, lonesome gait and be aware

I will never love a man cause love and pain go hand in hand

And I can't do it again

So we stayed up late one night to try and get our problems right

But I couldn't get into his head just what was going through my mind

I think he knew where I was going, he put Ryan Adams on

I think he thinks it makes me weak but it only ever makes me strong.

I've got this friend and he sounds just like him

And he's the man I'd leave you for, the man that I just adore like you

The same man, he turns to me, he said: "I've got to tell you how I feel

If God could make a perfect girl for me it would be you

And my God told me not tell her but how much do you love your

fella?"

I don't know more everyday

Not in this new romantic way

I'll always be your first love

You'll always be my first love

But I'm sorry to whichever man should meet my sorry state

Watch my sturdy, lonesome gait and beware

I will never love a man cause love and pain go hand in hand

And I can't do it again

I will never love a man cause I could never hurt a man

Not in this new romantic way
