Someone New

[Verse 1]
Guess I better come clean
I was lying through my teeth
You know that I was getting downright mean
And you heard about enough
Excuses from me to fill a magazine

[Pre-Chorus]
It was getting hard to sleep
'Cause my talk was only cheap
But you're gonna be surprised
To hear me talking like I'm someone new
Someone new

[Verse 2]
Was looking oh so cool
But I done enough crying all alone to fill a king-size pool
Guess I had to find out
The hard way, baby, I was someone's fool

[Pre-Chorus]
It was getting hard to sleep
Cuz my heart was on the street
But you're gonna be surprised
To find me looking like I'm someone new

[Chorus]
'Cause baby, someone new
Got a hold on me
Someone new
Took control for me
And what I blew
It won't be held against me
Yeah, baby, someone new
Is looking out for me
Someone who's
Got real love for me
But what's it to you?
Are you gonna be the last to know?
Are you gonna be the last to know?
Oh!

[Guitar Solo]
Oh, yeah

[Verse 3]
You think you're gonna be good
You think you're gonna try and save the world
Like some modern-day Robin Hood
Guess you're gonna find out the hard way, babe
There's only One that could

[Pre-Chorus 3]
It's getting too late to sleep
Why don't you come in off that street?
And you're gonna be surprised when you find out you can be someone new, too

[Chorus 2]
'Cause baby, someone new
Could take care of you
Someone who's
Got real love for you
It's up to you what you gonna do, yeah
'Cause baby, someone new's
Looking out for you
Someone who's
Gonna care for you
But what's it to you?
Are you gonna be the last to know?
You don't want to be the last to know
You could be someone new

[Outro]
Someone new
Hey, someone new
Hey, someone new
Someone new, yeah
All right
Oh yeah
Could be someone new, yeah
Someone new, yeah
Someone new, yeah
Someone new, yeah
Someone new
Someone new
Yeah, someone new
Someone new
Someone new
Yeah, someone new
(Yeah)
Oh, someone new
