Happy New Year

I was thinking of you

In painted canyon

And how you were

When you were young

And as much as I'd like to

Kill the engine

I cannot stay in oblivion

Fireworks explode like

Sunflowers

Making the water bright

The streets are filled with

Sirens and revelers

Trying to hold on

To the night

Happy new year, baby

I hope that all of your

Wishes come true

Happy new year, baby

You can wake me up

When it is

When it is

Through

And if only the party

Could go on forever

I'd listen and laugh

In a confetti storm

Imagining that we were

Happy together

To whistles and catcalls

All screaming for more

Happy new year, baby

I hope that all of your

Wishes come true

Happy new year, baby

You can wake me up

When it is

When it is

Through
