Guess I better come clean; I was lying through my teeth,
You know that I was getting downright mean,
And you heard about enough excuses from me to fill a magazine,
It was getting hard to sleep, because my talk was only cheap,
But you're gonna be surprised to hear me talking like I'm someone new.
Looking, oh, so cool, but I done enough crying, all alone, to fill a king-size pool,
Guess I had to find out the hard way, baby: I was someone's fool,
It was getting hard to sleep, because my heart was on the street,
You're gonna be surprised to find me looking like I'm someone new.
'Cause, baby, someone new got a hold of me,
Someone new took control for me,
And what I blew - it won't be held against me,
Hey, baby, someone new is looking out for me,
Someone who's got real love for me; but what's it to you?
Are you gonna be the last to know?
Are you gonna be the last to know?
You think you're gonna be good,
You think you're gonna try and save the world like some modern-day Robin Hood,
Guess you're gonna find out the hard way, babe: there's only one that could,
It's getting too late to sleep; why don't you come in off that street?
Do you wanna be someone new...someone new too?
'Cause, baby, someone new could take care of you,
Someone new has got real love for you,
It's up to you; what you gonna do, yeah?
Hey, baby, someone new looking out for you,
Someone who's got real love for you; but what's it to you?
Are you gonna be the last to know?
You don't wanna be the last to know.
