New Scratches

Stephen Simmons

I know you never thought I'd really hang around
I know you never thought I'd actually tough things out
I know there's something out there for everyman
Something, somewhere if you could just give it half a chance

Chorus:
But things change so much
When you're living at breakneck speed
And I've changed so much
But I don't wanna lose track of me

I know I ain't exactly full of romance
But I might surprise you honey if you give me half a chance
I don't know why you try to test me so much
I guess you wanna prove you don't really believe in love

Chorus

You get me going one way then you turn and head back
Get mad if I fall behind, mad if I stay on your tracks
Good times slip through cracks out on a one-way street
And brand new scratches sting a bare heart that's just trying to beat

Chorus

Tonight my heart has got
Brand new scratches baby
And you must think
New scratches look good on me
