Lyrics

[Verse 1] New year's eve Fine dark suits Paper hats Les grands salutes Your tear stained speech And your wounded eyes Your frail attempts To be remembered - [Chorus] Takes me down Dries me out It shoves me around Blows my flame out The moon is on And the morning lurks But the mood is gone With the fireworks I lost my faith In new year's eve [Verse 2] Serpentines Cheap cigars Sparkling wine Fallen stars [Chorus] It's time to quit And start again Only god knows What we're celebrating
