Happy New Year / another ceremony of loneliness you are the object of my
thoughts tonight you are everything that glitters . you reflect the light in
so many ways I kept my favourite pieces of last year / I pressed them in
between pages
I wish I could be there with you tonight / instead of an
airport lounge plane ticket away / as distance and dimension
prevail you're a winters day I carry with me / we're a telephone
conversation a long distance song of injury / it's fast approacting the
hour the stroke of one last midnight / well wishes a promise to you a
declaration I make to myself this time
A minute past midnight / the
countdown is over now another year has passed us by a new year has just
begun I thought of you when the fireworks filled the sky
the first
day of my new year the first day of my new life
this is the loneliest
time of the year especially when you're not here I'll celebrate on my
own
a minute past midnight the countdown is over now
another
year has passed us by a new year has just begun
