Lyrics:

[English]

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 say you don't mean what you're sayin' to me

But the glimmer in your eyes is telling me other things

I don't wanna get undressed

For a new person all over again

I don't wanna kiss someone else's neck

And have to pretend it's yours instead

I took the train to see my mother

I look across the track to see you with another

There's nothin' worse than seein' your lover

Moving on while you still suffer

I'm lookin' at you, and you're lookin' at me

But the glimmer in your eyes is sayin' you wanna leave

You say you don't mean what you're sayin' to me

But the glimmer in your eyes is telling me other things

I don't wanna get undressed

For a new person all over again

I don't wanna kiss someone else's neck

And have to pretend it's yours instead

And I don't wanna learn another scent

I don't want the children of another man

To have the eyes of the girl that I won't forget

I won't forget

I don't wanna get undressed

For a new person all over again

I don't wanna kiss someone else's neck

And have to pretend it's yours instead

I don't wanna get undressed

For a new person all over again
