A New England - John Peel Session, 27th July 1983

I was twenty one years when I wrote this song
 I'm twenty two now, but I won't be for long
 People ask when will you grow up to be a man
 But all the girls I loved at school
 Are already pushing prams
 I loved you then as I love you still
 Though I put you on a pedestal
 They put you on the pill
 I don't feel bad about letting you go
 I just feel sad about letting you know
 I don't want to change the world
 I'm not looking for a new England
 I'm just looking for another girl
 I don't want to change the world
 I'm not looking for a new England
 I'm just looking for another girl
 I loved the words you wrote to me
 But that was bloody yesterday
 I can't survive on what you send
 Every time you need a friend
 I saw two shooting stars last night
 I wished on them but they were only satellites
 It's wrong to wish on space hardware
 I wish, I wish, I wish you'd care
 I don't want to change the world
 I'm not looking for a new England
 I'm just looking for another girl
 I don't want to change the world
 I'm not looking for a new England
 I'm just looking for another girl
 Looking for another girl
 Looking for another girl
 Looking for another girl...
