[Verse 1]
There's talk on the street, it sounds so familiar
Great expectations, everybody's watching you
People you meet, they all seem to know you
Even your old friends treat you like you're something new
[Chorus]
Johnny-come-lately, the new kid in town
Everybody loves you, so don't let them down
[Verse 2]
You look in her eyes, the music begins to play
Hopeless romantics, here we go again
But after a while, you're lookin' the other way
It's those restless hearts that never mend (Oh)
[Chorus]
Johnny-come-lately, the new kid in town
Will she still love you when you're not around?
[Bridge]
There's so many things you should have told her
But night after night, you're willing to hold her, just hold her
Tears on your shoulder
[Verse 3]
There's talk on the street, it's there to remind you
Doesn't really matter which side you're on
You're walking away and they're talking behind you
They will never forget you 'til somebody new comes along
There's talk on the street, it sounds so familiar
Great expectations, everybody's watching you
People you meet, they all seem to know you
Even your old friends treat you like you're something new
[Chorus]
Johnny-come-lately, the new kid in town
Everybody loves you, so don't let them down
[Verse 2]
You look in her eyes, the music begins to play
Hopeless romantics, here we go again
But after a while, you're lookin' the other way
It's those restless hearts that never mend (Oh)
[Chorus]
Johnny-come-lately, the new kid in town
Will she still love you when you're not around?
[Bridge]
There's so many things you should have told her
But night after night, you're willing to hold her, just hold her
Tears on your shoulder
[Verse 3]
There's talk on the street, it's there to remind you
Doesn't really matter which side you're on
You're walking away and they're talking behind you
They will never forget you 'til somebody new comes along
