Song Description

The consequences of a one night stand unrequited love

Lyrics

New Years Day
Kati Mac/Robin Batteau

V The winter sky so cold, silver moon, clouds of snow
This frozen girl began to thaw
With words you spoke to me
My shirt came off so easily
I turned around and let it fall

B Onto that reckless highway
Into the great unknown
Wrapped up in wild abandon
So together so alone

V. There was no promise made, no homage paid New Years Day
Two lovers in a single bed
You slept so soundly with your arms tangled all around me
Now it's all tangled up inside my head

B Lost on that reckless highway
Tossed to the great unknown
As we came together
I fell alone

Chorus But I won't let you know
This is not your lullabye
I won't let you see the longing here inside
Cause I don't want to steal
What I cannot make you feel
I won't write your name into this song

V Tearing my heart in two beneath a flag of gold and blue
Skating in circles in my head
And so I pulled from you things that I already knew
I should have laughed at it instead






B. Now it's too late to take back
Words I threw in pain
Like ghosts they come to haunt me
You will not come again

Chorus But I won't let you know
This is not your lullabye
I won't let you see the struggle here inside
Cause I don't want to steal
Love I cannot make you feel
I won't write your name into this song
