Something Scary Something New
It's a Trio, Me, Myself and I
Story behind the song
Thought about two strangers in a bar, both hurt by love one way or another. Wondering if it's worth another try.
Lyrics
Something Scary, Something New
(Jim Russ)
They look at each other smile at one another
But they don’t see what they thought it would be
No they don’t see the change it’ll make
No they don’t see how good it could be
They just don’t see just what it’ll take
‘Cause all they see all they see
(Chorus)
Is something scary, something new
Afraid of what they haven’t done in so long too
Something sweet that’s bound to have a price
Broken hearts will do that it’ll make you think twice
But don’t do that don’t do that
They sit closer he’s interested and he shows her
But they don’t feel what they thought they would
No they don’t feel it can melt away the past
No they don’t feel their future will be good
They just don’t feel they could be happy at last
‘Cause all they feel all they feel
(Chorus)
Is something scary something new
They swore if it happened they’d know just what to do
Something forever, that feels meant to be
Can scare the strongest person into saying that ain’t for me
But don’t do that don’t do that
They gave out their number and all night they’ll wonder
Did I do the right thing, is this really right for me?
Will they see the good, do they know that they could?
Are they hoping they’ll no longer see, no longer see ...
(Repeat both choruses)
