New Year’s Eve
Three hundred sixty-four nights
I lay in bed all alone
Feeling each moment completely
As they’re parceled out to my flesh and my bones
With you as the blue in my sky
But never the silk in my hands
I know your beauty will always surround me
Even if it’s warming some other man
I’ve got dreams just like anyone
And years to bring them to life
So I’m saying now if I see you somehow
I’d like to kiss you at midnight
The only things that stand between us
Are mountains and rivers and dirt
They expand and contract just like breathing
Keeping you curious, keeping me hurt
Promises, Dares, and Desire
All have a part in my play
Speaking the lines for Temptation
Convincing me you wouldn’t send me away
I’ve got a spirit like anyone
Ready and willing to fight
So I’m saying now if I can get there somehow
I’d like to kiss you at midnight
Three hundred sixty-five days
Ran right on past and then died
I can’t let even one more go by
Not a day or a breath unless you’re by my side
With you as the blue in my sky
But still not the silk in my hands
I know your beauty will always surround me
And I’m coming to you as soon as I can
I’ve got a heart just like anyone
A soul that’s about to take flight
So I’m saying now that I’ll be there somehow
I’m gonna kiss you at midnight
I’m gonna hold you at midnight
I’m gonna tell you I love you at midnight tonight
