New Year |
She sets her alarm |
Five minutes to midnight |
And wakes just in time |
To greet the new year |
Remembers the kisses |
Remembers the laughter |
And all thats gone away |
She shuffles around |
Turning the lights on |
Goes to the kitchen |
Gets the champagne |
Opens the window |
And wrapped in a blanket |
Begins to count and wait |
Happy new year |
Happy new year |
They say you can hear it |
Over the island |
Starting in Times Square |
And spreading throughout |
A roar like the ocean |
It comes from a distance |
Grows louder then turns quiet |
She sits in a dream |
Or in a memory |
While old convernations |
Play in her ears |
Sometimes the minutes |
Feel longer than hours |
Some days feel long as years |
Shes just glad she gets to be around |
To see a nother spring come to this town |
Happy new year |
Happy new year |
To you |
She sets her alarm |
Five minutes to midnight |
And wakes just in time |
To say her goodbyes |
Thanking the old year |
For all it has brought her |
No mention of the things it took away |
She shuffles around |
Turning the lights out |
Closes the window |
Checks on the locks |
Folds up the blanket |
Empties the bottle |
And leaves it in the hallway dark |
She’s just glad she gets to be around |
To see another spring come to this town |
Happy New Year x6 |
To you |
Happy new year x6 |
To you |
