Written for his son, “Something New” is a guitar-based song, which is about how everything in life seems to be the same. Tom is ready for something different to come along, and in this case, the something new is his newborn son, Buzz Michelangelo Fletcher.
The song first premiered on Tom’s YouTube...
[Verse 1]
It's just another sunrise
On another day
It's just another rainbow
Well they're all the same
Let me guess a sunset
Followed by the moon
I think I'm ready for something new
[Verse 2]
It's just another love song
About another girl
It's just another movie
Where they save the world
And every rollercoaster
Does a loop the loop
I guess I'm ready for something new
[Chorus 1]
I'm not saying life is boring
Just predictable sometimes
When you know the end of every other line is gonna rhyme
After every eight you're always gonna find a nine
February 2nd, we'll be cold outside
[Verse 3]
I predict a summer, it isn't very long
Then before you know it, we're singing Christmas songs
Then we get another April, May and June
I think I'm ready for something new
[Chorus 2]
I'm not saying life is boring
Coz it's beautiful sometimes
Like the feeling when you're falling
It's like walking on the sky
There'll come a morning you won't open up your eyes
But it's what you do until that day arrives
[Outro]
You wanna touch a mountain
And taste the waterfall
You only have to see one
Then you've seem them all
Gonna bet tomorrow
That the sky is blue
I guess I'm ready
I think I'm ready
I hope I'm ready
For something new
