New Kid In Town Lyrics
There's talk on the street, it sounds so familiar
Great expectations, everybody's watching you
People you meet, they all seem to know you
Even your old friends treat you like you're something new
Johnny-come-lately
The new kid in town
Everybody loves you
So don't let them down
You look in her eyes, the music begins to play
Hopeless romantics, here we go again
But after awhile, you're lookin' the other way
It's those restless hearts that never mend (oh)
Johnny-come-lately
The new kid in town
Will she still love you
When you're not around?
There's so many things you should have told her
But night after night, you're willing to hold her
Just hold her
Tears on your shoulder
There's talk on the street, it's there to remind you
Doesn't really matter which side you're on
You're walking away and they're talking behind you
They will never forget you 'til somebody new comes along
Where you been lately?
There's a new kid in town
Everybody loves him, don't they?
He's holding her and you're still around
Oh, my, my
There's a new kid in town
Just another new kid in town
There's a new kid in town (I don't wanna hear it)
There's a new kid in town (I don't wanna hear it, ah-ooh)
There's a new kid in town
There's a new kid in town
There's a new kid in town (everybody's talking)
There's a new kid in town (people started walking)
There's a new kid in town (mm-hm-mm)
There's a new kid in town (mm-hm-mm)
There's a new kid in town
