I was sittin' at the cafe for a bite
And couldn't help it overhear this guy
He just pulled up an u-haul truck
Tell Becky, how punctual's
'Bout movin' here for his new job
And what a cool little spot it was
It kinda made jealous, it made me mad
Wish I could see this place like that
Yeah, wish I was new to this town
Just pullin' in
Checkin' it out for the first time
Wish I could go anywhere
And not be afraid of finding you there
Yeah girl when I see you around
I wish I was new to this town
I can't put my feet on this sidewalk
Without hearing you laugh and hearing you talk
And every street's a memory of just how good it used to be
I can't walk into that corner bar
Without someone asking how you are
And how you're doing, and how you've been
I gotta go through it all again.
I wish I was new to this town
Just pullin' in
Checkin' it out for the first time
Wish I could go anywhere
And not be afraid of finding you there
Yeah girl when I see you around
I wish I was new to this town
I wonder what it feels like to hop in my truck
Not think about us, just go for a ride
And stop at that stoplight, not think about you
Sittin' here by my side
I wish I was new to this town
Just pullin' in
Checkin' it out for the first time
Wish I could go anywhere
And not be afraid of finding you there
Yeah girl when I see you around
And I feel the way that I do now
I wish I was new to this town
I wish I was new to this town, oh yeah
I wish I was new to this town
