Something new
Captivated Heart: Unveiling Love's Secrets in Broke Down Trucks' 'Something New'
Lyrics
I only went 'cause you were there
I attended the event solely because you were present.
I'd never miss a chance to see you
I wouldn't miss an opportunity to see you.
Dressed up performing there
You were dressed up and performing at the event.
I couldn't take my eyes off you
I couldn't take my eyes off you during the performance.
It was a day but you stole the show
Although it was just a day, your presence made it memorable.
I'll tell you something most people know
I want to share something that most people already know.
You're the one that I found to love
You are the person I have discovered and fallen in love with.
The most beautiful girl I've ever dreamt about
You are the most beautiful girl I've ever dreamed about.
Tell me something new
Requesting the person to share something new.
Some things I've never heard before
Asking for information or experiences that I haven't heard before.
Tell me something true
Asking for a statement or fact that is genuine and sincere.
Some things sound better with the truth
Suggesting that some things are more appealing when accompanied by the truth.
Every time I'm with you
Expressing the emotional impact of being with the person.
I get butterflies that I'm not used to
Feeling nervous and excited, experiencing unfamiliar sensations.
You turn me into the boy I knew
You bring out qualities in me that I recognized from our initial encounter.
Back when I first saw you
Reflecting on the person's impact since the first meeting.
I opened the door and there you were
Recalling a specific moment of opening a door and finding the person.
The prettiest girl who has ever walked the earth
Complimenting the person as the most beautiful girl on Earth.
Tell me something new
Reiterating the request for something new.
Some things I've never heard before
Seeking novel information or experiences.
Tell me something true
Emphasizing the desire for genuine and truthful statements.
Some things sound better with the truth
Suggesting that some things are improved when accompanied by honesty.
Show me something new
Requesting to be shown something new or different.
Some thing I've never seen before
Expressing a desire to witness something never seen before.
And I know I'm a fool
Acknowledging a foolish decision to be alone instead of being with the person.
'Cause I'm here alone when I could be with you
Regretting being alone when the opportunity to be with the person exists.
I only went 'cause you were there
Reiterating that attending the event was solely because of the person's presence.
I only went 'cause you were there
Repetition emphasizing the reason for attending the event.
I only went 'cause you were there
Continued emphasis on attending the event because of the person.
I only went 'cause you were there
Repeating the reason for attending the event, underscoring the importance of the person's presence.
