"The New Wears Off Too Fast"

THE NEW WEARS OFF TOO FAST
Writers Hank Thompson, Billy Gray

To someone new you're about to go But after the Charm has passed You'll come back because I know the new wears off too fast. You're like a Kid with a brand new toy but the luster just won't last, Your latest love is a passing joy 'Cause the new wears off too fast... CHORUS You find a fascination In loving someone new They draw you like a magnet and then you say"we're thru!" The love you thought was pure as gold was just as cheap as brass I knew his love would soon grow old 'cause the new wears off t oo fast You say you found another one who's really in your class But you'll find he's not your kind 'Cause the new wears off too fast All that glitters is not gold Gems alone, don't flash, Your one-time thing is a passing fling 'Cause the new wears off too fast CHORUS
