I'm twenty-two now, but I won't be for long 
 People ask me when will I grow up to understand 
 Why the girls I knew at school are already pushing prams 
  
 I loved you then as I love you still 
 Though I put you on a pedestal, you put me on the pill 
 I don't feel bad about letting you go 
 I just feel sad about letting you know 
  
 I don't want to change the world 
 I'm not looking for a new England 
 Are you looking for another girl 
  
 I loved the words you wrote to me 
 But that was bloody yesterday 
 I can't survive on what you send 
 Every time you need a friend 
  
 I saw two shooting stars last night 
 I wished on them, but they were only satellites 
 It's wrong to wish on space hardware 
 I wish, I wish, I wish you'd care 
  
 I don't want to change the world 
 I'm not looking for a new England 
 Are you looking for another girl 
  
 My dreams were full of strange ideas 
 My mind was set despite the fears 
 But other things got in the way 
 I never asked that boy to stay 
  
 Once upon a time at home 
 I sat beside the telephone 
 Waiting for someone to pull me through 
 When at last it didn't ring, I knew it wasn't you 
  
 I don't want to change the world 
 I'm not looking for a new England 
 Are you looking for another girl
