Pete Doherty Lyrics
"New Love Grows On Trees"

Are you still talking to
All of those dead film stars like you used to?
And are you still thinking of
All of those pretty rhymes and perfect crimes
Like you used to?

And if you're still alive when you're twenty five
Why should I kill you like you asked me to?
If you're still alive when you're twenty five
Oh, would I kill you?
You told me to but I really don't want to

I remember every single thing you said to me
You played the man and I was Calvary
And you said, ah, you said
New love grows on trees, new love grows on trees
New love grows, new love grows on trees
If you [Incomprehensible] if you don't [Incomprehensible]

Time makes perfect nonsense to me
As the price of being free these days
It's ridiculous

Are you still shaking out
All the deadwood from your bed love like you used to?
Well, times don't change, you're still thinking up
All of those perfect lines for love to bind
You really don't have to

And if you're still alive when you're twenty five
Why should I kill you like you asked me to?
If you're still alive when you're twenty five
Shall I kill you?
You told me to but I really don't want to

I remember every single thing you said to me
You played the man and I was Calvary
Then you said
New love grows on trees, new love grows on trees
New love grows on, new love grows on trees
