Alvvays - Not My Baby lyrics

Now that you’re not my baby I go do whatever I want No need to turn around to see what’s behind me I don’t care And it’s true I’ve been checking out lately I go do whatever I want No need to turn around to see what’s behind me I don’t care Because I’m not really there I’m not really there And now that you’re not my baby I’ll go do whatever I want No need to sit at home with the dial tone 'Cause I don’t care And it’s true I’ve been going out lately And I go do whatever I want You can write it down with a fountain pen Close your eyes and then count to ten You can tell your friends that I don’t make sense And I don’t care Because I’m really not there I'm really not there The nite is like a fading radio The lake was frozen over long ago Now that you’re not my baby (Now you’re not) Now that you’re not my baby (Now you’re not) You sought an eye So did I for an island You sought an eye So did I for an eye Traded my rose-coloured shades for a wide lens Used to make noise now I much prefer silence Now that you’re not my baby (Now you’re not) Now that you’re not my baby (Now you’re not) Now that you’re not my baby (Now you’re not) Now that you’re not my baby (Now you’re not) I feel alive for the first time Since I don’t know how long I see a light for the first time Since I don’t know how long
