New Years Day Lyrics - Welcome The Night - Ataris

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 I've found redemption 

And a past full of regret 

And the clouds on the horizon 

Look 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
