"It Ain't Nothing New Babe" lyrics

"It Ain't Nothing New Babe"

Well, it ain't nothing new babe
It's just a dream that fell through babe
And the plans that you have to make
Will be made here and now
With your head slightly bowed

You can see life goes on girl
And the weak must grow strong girl
On your journey through this old world
You will soon understand that the love of your man
Was a shoulder to cry on
And a friend to rely on
But it wasn't worth dying for
When he told you goodbye
When he told you goodbye

There's just one thing for certain
The pain won't stop hurting
'Til you go back to working with
Something left that you love
Because the push and the shove
Of the everyday day now
Has become such a hassle
And your only dream castle
Disappeared in the sky when he told you goodbye

Well it ain't nothing new babe
It's just a dream that fell through babe
And the steps that you have to take
Will be taken somehow
They'll be taken right now
