New year isn’t far away
Haven’t felt myself for days
Though time will bury me
I won’t let you down
Another year has passed us by
Lord knows we really tried
Love burns like firewood
Don’t put our flame out for good
New year isn’t far away
So let’s find God and pray
Or let’s find a drink or two
Go wild, like we used to
Or make lists of things to do
That there is just no getting through
Oh I can’t wait to be
The same old you and me
A clean slate might restart
These weary little hearts
I don’t fail like this with anybody else
We just need some time
Before the rest of our lives
I’ve always thought that we were lovelier in the spring
A new year in 5..4..3..2
But last year has it in for me and you
So where can we go next
My friend?
New year isn’t far away
Haven’t felt myself for days
Though time has buried me
I won’t let you down
