A guy moved into town I ain't seen you around
Oh I feel a brand new heartache coming on
It happened once before when a guy moved in next door
Oh I feel a brand new heartache coming on

Why can't I trust in you?
Why do you try to make me blue the way you do?
You said you'd have a ball but you never showed at all
Oh I feel a brand new heartache coming on

Why can't I trust in you?
Why do you try to make me blue the way you do?
Tonight we had a date and you're three hours late
Oh I feel a brand new heartache coming on
Oh I feel a brand new heartache coming on
