Song lyrics
Woke up cold one Tuesday
I'm looking tired and feeling quite sick
I felt like there was something missing in my day to day life
So I quickly opened the wardrobe
Pulled out some jeans and a t-shirt that seemed clean
Topped it off with a pair of old shoes that were ripped around the seams
And I thought, "These shoes just don't suit me"

Hey
I put some new shoes on and suddenly everything is right
I said hey
I put some new shoes on and everybody's smiling
It's so inviting
Oh
Short on money but long on time
Slowly strolling in the sweet sunshine
And I'm running late
And I don't need an excuse 'cause I'm wearing my brand new shoes

Woke up late one Thursday
And I'm seeing stars as I'm rubbing my eyes
And I felt like there were two days missing as I focused all the time
And I made my way to the kitchen
But I had to stop from the shock of what I found
A room full of all my friends dancing round and round
And I thought, "Hello new shoes
Bye bye blues"

Hey
I put some new shoes on and suddenly everything is right
I said hey
I put some new shoes on and everybody's smiling
It's so inviting
Oh
Short on money but long on time
Slowly strolling in the sweet sunshine
And I'm running late
And I don't need an excuse 'cause I'm wearing my brand new shoes

Oh
Mmm
Mmm
Mmm
Mmm
Mmm

Take me wandering through these streets
Where bright lights and angels meet
Stone to stone they take me on
I'm walking 'til the break of dawn

Take me wandering through these streets
Where bright lights and angels meet
Stone to stone they take me on
I'm walking 'til the break of dawn

Hey
I put some new shoes on and suddenly everything is right
I said hey
I put some new shoes on and everybody's smiling
It's so inviting
Oh
Short on money but long on time
Slowly strolling in the sweet sunshine
And I'm running late
And I don't need an excuse 'cause I'm wearing my brand new shoes

Oh
Hey
I put some new shoes on and suddenly everything is right
I said hey
I put some new shoes on and everybody's smiling
It's so inviting
Oh
Short on money but long on time
Slowly strolling in the sweet sunshine
And I'm running late
And I don't need an excuse 'cause I'm wearing my brand new shoes

Why does every song have to be about love and the lack of? I really like this song. It is really catchy and it makes me think about my beloved old shoes that are ripped around the seams.
