Nothing New
Words and Music by Anna Rundall


I've been growing old somehow
Same old flame is colder now
Weaker bond that ties no more
Here to stay, but not so sure
Rings are round without an end
This is nothing new my friend
and there is nothing new, nothing new
There is nothing new

Seek ye first and you will find
God forgives, and love is blind
Bruises heal and hearts do too
Baby ain't he good to you
Sticks and stones will break my bones
I'd rather die than be alone
and there is nothing new, nothing new
There is nothing new

Stories change like people do
Sometimes even dreams come true
Fairytales and nightmares too
Baby ain't he good to you
There is nothing new, nothing new
There is nothing new

Promises like flowers fade
Hate to love and love to hate
Back and forth from grief to great
Is this love
or just too late
Sticks and stones may break my bones
I'd rather die than be alone
And there is nothing new, nothing new
Nothing left of you, nothing new
He ain't good to you
Nothing new......
