New Year´s Day
(album: Welcome The Night)
You´re a senior double major
You got such big ideas
We were searching for a savior
To guide us through those restless years
If only I could steal you away
From those paths we were led astray
I would take back all those things I said
That new year´s day
If only I could make you see
That all those dreams belonged to me
I´d take back all those things I said
That new year´s day
The October autumn twilight
The chilling of our breath
I had dreams of found redemption
And a past full of regret
And the clouds on the horizon
Looked like a thousand paper cranes
And I heard your voice
But couldn´t scream your name
If only I could steal you away
From those paths were led astray
I would take back all those things I said
That new year´s day
If only I could make you see
That all those dreams belonged to me
I´d take back all those things I said
That new year´s day
So let´s drink to forgiveness
Let´s drink for regret
Let´s drink to the ones we´ve loved and lost
Let us never forget
The mannequin shields her glowing eyes
We´ll all too human, yeah
We´re always searching on
Until that gift of isolation has been won
If only I could steal you away
From those paths were led astray
I would take back all those things I said
That new year´s day
If only I could make you see
That all those dreams belonged to me
I´m haunting them the way you know you´re haunting me
If only I could steal you away
From those paths were led astray
I would take back all those things I said
That new year´s day
That new year´s day
