New Year

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Fireside conversations Bourbon on our breath Laughter in the kitchen The children make a mess From the front porch to the backyard Tragedy in between [Chorus] It's a New Year It's a new song It's the same mystery [Verse 2] We talk about your brother Stories left unheard You share blood but you don't share words Same room on Holidays No apologies [Chorus] It's a New Year It's a new song It's the same mystery [Verse 3] Cool of October We feel the sorrow of St. Jude Void between strangers as the clock quickly moves It's a long way from paradise A long way from Eden's Tree [Chorus] It's a New Year It's a new song It's the same mystery [Verse 4] Six months turns to six years Time is like a ghost Lost in my mind again Yet suddenly I'm alone That loneliness comes and goes It speaks harsh words to me [Chorus] It's a New Year It's a new song It's the same mystery [Verse 5] Walking through my neighborhood I have nothing left to say Life and death they never rest And I still got bills to pay On earth as is in heaven Don't make sense to me [Chorus] It's a New Year It's a new song It's the same mystery It's a New Year It's a new song It's the same mystery
