Lyrics[]

Taken from Metrolyrics[2]

Nowhere to go
All night took everything
Another nice try with Mr. Wrong
Late night TV on my horizon
National anthem and I'm barely hangin' on

Just a typical Saturday night
Feeling like the rest of my life

There was nothing new under the moon
Same old dance, same old tune
Just wishes on stars that never came true
Just one more night to get through
But there was nothing new under the moon, 'till you

Hey what a change
Hey what a concept
Here's a true heart waiting mine
News Flash! Who'd ever thought you could
Have the same feeling at the very same time?

Look at what your love's doing to me
I can't believe I used to believe
There was nothing new under the moon
Same old dance, same old tune
Just wishes on stars that never came true
Just one more night to get through
But there was nothing new under the moon, 'till you

Nothing new under the moon
Same old dance, same old tune
Just wishes on stars that never came true
Just one more night to get through
There was nothing new under the moon, 'till you
Nothin' new under the moon, 'till you
Nothin' new under the moon

Nothin' new under the moon, 'till you
Nothin' new under the moon

There was nothing new under the moon, 'till you
