[Verse 1]
The people in the street had overtaken you
By the time you rounded Second Avenue

[Refrain]
So I walked away, all perfumed
Felt just the same but brand new

[Verse 2]
And anything you wrote, I checked for codes and clues
The letters stopped unceremoniously in June

[Refrain]
So I changed my I's and A's to yours
I'm just the same but brand new

[Bridge]
And I do my best impression of weightlessness now, too
And I might be wrong, I might be wrong, I might be wrong
But honey, I believed I could

[Outro]
Float away, dangling
I'm just the same but brand new to you
