Old Love/New Love Lyrics

Cover art for Old Love/New Love lyrics by Twin Shadow

Someone he really shouldn't be in a relationship with but keeps coming back to has called him yet again. And no matter how many times he convinces himself that he doesn't love her anymore, each time they split apart and he has time away from her, it all gets crushed when she contacts him again.

He always thinks he's ready for it but he isn't. He can never prepare himself for the hurt.

Yes, it's about an old love becoming a new love. But it's also about the pain of loving someone when you really, really shouldn't. It's the pain of being stuck on someone you should really move on from.

An unhealthy cycle of old love becoming a new love.
