This New Year was meant to be magic Now I'm by myself, at 1 A.M Trying to understand it This New Year was meant to be different Resolutions to forget the past Are already broken And I want so bad to believe it's just bad weather That somehow we'll make it through And next year it'll all be better And the confetti will fall Broken glass on the floor And the fireworks will look even brighter Counting down 'til midnight Holding hands in a line Making promises when we should know better You won't let me down when you wake up sober You'll stick around when the party's over You won't let my heart break, there'll be no tears Next New Year Next New Year, we'll really mean it When we say that "This year, we're gonna make it" Next New Year, there won't be sad songs Just play "Fairytale of New York" And you'll kiss me, make my heart stop And the confetti will fall Broken glass on the floor And the fireworks will look even brighter Counting down 'til midnight Holding hands in a line Making promises when we should know better You won't let me down when you wake up sober You'll stick around when the party's over You won't let my heart break, there'll be no tears Next New Year Say we'll make it, say we're fine Say this New Year's not goodbye Say this time, it's not the end If we can't mean it, we'll pretend The confetti will fall Broken glass on the floor And the fireworks will look even brighter Counting down 'til midnight Holding hands in a line Making promises when we should know better You won't let me down when you wake up sober You'll stick around when the party's over You won't let my heart break, there'll be no tears Next New Year Say we'll make it, say we're fine Say this New Year's not goodbye Say this time, it's not the end Next New Year You won't let me down when you wake up sober You'll stick around when the party's over You won't let my heart break, there'll be no tears Next New Year
