Joshua James - The New Love Song Lyrics






So you say you want a love song
One to move your feet onto
I'll sing a real life tune

So you say you want a love song
One to trick your girlfriend with
I hope my little number will do...

So 1, 2, 3
Ohohoh...

Let's stop our busy lives awhile
And think of the many many people
Across the many miles of earth
That have no clothes, no food to eat

And what about the air we breathe
To the food we eat
Are filled with things that kill
Our deaths are closer than we think

Well another silly love song could make me sick
About a stupid emo rocker and his messed up chick
Are we so deaf dumb and blind we can't see the candlestick
Burning down

So ohohoh...

Oh she woke up on her Monday morn
It's just another cup of coffee
In her run down place called home
She makes her way out to the car

The radio blares to drown
All the many many faces in her life
That at one time cared
But they have all moved away and gone

And now to work she goes
Removing all her clothes
For all the perverse older men in our sickly generation
But they don't, no they don't give a damn

Well another silly love song could make me sick
About a stupid emo rocker and his messed up chick
Are we so deaf dumb and blind we can't see the candlestick
Burning down

It's burning down
Oh...
So ohohoh...

Open your souls, open your minds
'Cause there are wonderful people in the world outside
So open your souls, open your minds
'Cause there are wonderful people in the world outside
So open your souls, open your minds
'Cause there are wonderful people in the world outside
So open your souls, yeah open your minds
Oh...

Well another silly love song could make me sick
I could say "hello," but I want a conversation
I could love you till I'm dead but how long will I live
Till I'm down
Yeah, I'm burning down

Ooh...

    Joshua is so IN IT when he performs. Every artist should strive to be as real as he is.

  14. B.... K....

    Hey everyone! My band did a cover of this song. I think it sounds great and we did it because Joshua James has really inspired us. Please feel free to watch it. It is a little more of a rock and roll version. Once again I think everyone will love it. Just copy and paste this into the youtube bar above.

    "mirror image the new love song"

  24. M.... L....

    Are you a signed Artists?

  25. s.... m....

    His music is fine enough and pleasant to listen too. I just couldn't take watching him go through over dramatic emotional muscle twitching moments on stage. Plenty of drama to go around here.

  26. V.... ....

    @Mack2492 Seriously, RIGHT!?!?

  27. p.... ....

  30. D.... G....

    A matter of time for Josh!!! When you sing from the heart and the human heart responds you know it's fah real!

  32. s.... ....

    honest and heartfelt just how I like it

  33. w.... ....

    Have you seen him live, before? You will be in AWE, I PROMISE you that!!

  34. L.... ....

    never thought that i would ever like these kind of songs...amazing...he puts a lot emotion when he sings which matches the grt lyics.

  35. w.... ....

    @thelastnicolicorn Thanks for letting me know. I found out from his website a few weeks ago. I will be the FIRST in line!! Shocked to find out it's a FREE show! Rock on JJ!!! Atlanta loves you!!

  36. w.... ....

    This guy sings from the depths of his soul. Saw him live in Atlanta last month, and he was incredible! You have got to see him LIVE to truly appreciate his work. He puts his ALL into it!! Got to talk with him after the show, and he is VERY nice and personable. Joshua James is like no singer we have EVER seen before, and with the right guidance, he is going to be HUGE!! I hope you come back to Atlanta SOON, buddy!!

  37. L.... ....

    He sings with such passion! :) he feels the music to his core!...

  38. M.... G....

    saw these guys at crock rock. good stuff.

  39. T.... W....

    What I have a problem with is that people spell motivate "modavate" and then even after I point it out retards like you still don't realize it. You should think about what you say before you say it.

  40. M.... E....

    I just gotta say, I`ve heard a lot of sing n song writers, poets, stars, people, pain and laughters.. And all i can say about Joshua is... He is what it`s all about, and i know hes music lives forever. First time i heard of him was the Modest Mouse - Custom Concern cover and he makes it better then Isaac Brock, and ive listend to the org since 1996.... I wish Joshua all the best in the world.. Greetings from the fans of Sweden! :)

  41. T.... W....

    modavate?? really? come on

  42. R.... M....

    wow, what a song, love his voice, its awesome. wanna hear him sing hallelujah by leaonard cohen, would be great

  43. Z.... ....

    If you ever get the chance to see Josh live, you MUST DO IT! Absolutely incredible. Almost all of the Joshua James videos I've seen on video disappoint me. They just can't present what his live performance does,

  44. S.... ....

    I hope the major label don't want to change him.. Cause that's useuallty the deal with singer/songwriters, the musiclabels want them but then they need one or two "hit" pop songs

  45. C.... T....

    Yeah, I agree with you. I know this guy. He's a good man. The problem is, people don't like lyrics that make you think these days. All they want is something with simple lyrics, simple music to make their minds numb and glaze over. I just read that he's signed to a major label though, so that's a good start. He's been in it for about 4 years now is that right?

  46. A.... G....

    I love love love joshua james.

  47. j.... ....

    mental note: learn to play the lap steel

  48. L.... C....

    Just Beautiful~<3
    !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  49. M.... S....

    big luv

  50. g.... ....

    wow he sounds good

  51. M.... �....

    good song :D
