You had a dream, you wanted better,
you were sick of all the holes in your sweater.
You looked to me and wondered whether
I was the lamppost to which you were tethered.
I’m lookin’ at you and you’re lookin’ at me
but the glimmer in your eyes is sayin’ you wanna leave.
You’re sayin’ to me what you’re sayin’ to me
but the glimmer in your eyes is telling me other things.
I don’t wanna get impressed
by a new person all ovеr again.
I don’t wanna miss all the time we spent
and have to pretend it didn’t end.
I took the train to see my mother,
I look across the tracks to see you with another.
There’s nothin’ worse than seein’ you wander,
movin’ on – I must be stronger.
I’m lookin’ at you and you’re lookin’ at me
but the glimmer in your eyes is sayin’ you wanna leave.
You’re sayin’ to me what you’re sayin’ to me
but the glimmer in your eyes is telling me other things.
I don’t wanna get impressed
by a new person all ovеr again.
I don’t wanna miss all the time we spent
and have to pretend it didn’t end.
And I don’t wanna feel that pain again,
I don’t wanna see you hold somebody’s hand,
the special moments we shared – I won’t forget...
I won’t forget...
I don’t wanna get impressed
by a new person all ovеr again.
I don’t wanna miss all the time we spent
and have to pretend it didn’t end.
I don’t wanna get impressed
by a new person all ovеr again…
