Lake Street Dive - Same Old News Lyrics

I just wanna love you
I just wanna try
I ain't always the subject
Of a thousand prying eyes
I worry about the gossip
Do you think that will be fine?
There ain't no way to stop it
So I won't change my mind

I would run away with ya any day
If we could
But I don't think that running anywhere
Would do us any good
We just keep on making

The same old news
People talk about us
But what they do without us?
Is the same old news
I just wanna love you
But it's causing so much trouble
I guess it's the same old, same old news

I just wanna love you
In some old fashioned way
Instead, we're picked apart for everything we say
I would change my name for ya (what would ya change it?)
To anything for what it's worth (mm oh)
But I hope that they find us anyway
At the corners of the earth
We just keep on making

The same old news
I'm feeling overtired from being so hardwired
It's the same old news
Causing such a fuss that they want to lock us up

Well ain't it a shame
The way they exclaim
That being in love is something they want us to explain
But I guess it's the same old
Same old news

Ah let's move to an island
A million miles from shore
At least until they build a tower (mmm, mmm)
Where there wasn't one before

We just keep on making
The same old news
Oh, oh, people talk about us
But what they do without us?
Is the same old news
I just wanna love you
But it's causing so much trouble
It's the same old news
Every time we kiss I can hear them stop to whisper

They know all of our secrets (yes they do)
And they know where we've been (ah-ah)
They're inside our head and underneath our skin, yeah
Oh haven't you heard (oh, oh I)
It's so absurd
I think it's a waste
But it's still a basic human urge

To keep spreading the same old
Same old, same old, same old
Same old, same old news
