A Theme For New Years... Lyrics - Singles - One Dollar Short

New years eve 

another ceremony of loneliness 

you are the object of my thoughts tonight 

you are everything that glitters 

you reflect the light (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 (myself this time) 

throwing handfuls of confetti in the air 

A minute past midnight 

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 

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 while fireworks filled the sky
