New Shoes Lyrics

Cover art for New Shoes lyrics by Paolo Nutini

To me the song symbolizes a fresh beginning. Like at the beginning when he says "these shoes just don't suit me" Paolo's having an epiphany.

I think of it like a relationship. Like he finally realized that it wasn't worth it and he just kinda gets out. Then when he says "and i thought 'hello new shoes, bye bye blues'" it is like he found a new girl. or a new way to well be happy.

i really love this song because it is basically how i've been feeling lately. Deciding a guy just isn't really worth it, getting upset about losing him, then thinking "hello new shoes, bye bye blue" and finding a new love (be it a person or thing)

LOVE paolo. absolutely LOVE him
