Lyrics The Next One - Teddy Thompson

The Next One

There you are on my street
Standing where we used to meet
I look like I just woke up
You look beautiful as ever
Oh, why did you have to come back now?
I was just about to feel okay
Don’t ask me how I’m doing
What’s the perfect thing to say?
Oh, take me to the next one
Fast forward me to someone new
Take me to the next one
It’s the best thing I can do to get me over you
Spring is here in New York
Everybody’s outside
And I would rather run
Into any other body in this town
Oh, leaving it the way we did
Well, it feel so open ended
I can tell you that I’m happy
'Cause we’re just pretending
Oh, take me to the next one
Fast forward me to someone new
Oh, take me to the next one
It’s the best thing I can do to get me over you
How’s it done?
The great undo
All we did, now I do, now I do
Oh, take me to the next one
Fast forward me to someone new
Oh, take me to the next one
It’s the best thing I can do
Oh, take me to the next one
Fast forward me to someone new
Oh, take me to the next one
It’s the best thing I can do to get me over you
Oh, to get me over you
