Next New Year

[Verse 1]

This New Year was meant to be magic

Now I'm by myself, at 1 a.m. 

Trying to understand it

This New Year was meant to be different

Resolutions to forget the past

Are already broken

[Pre-Chorus]

And I want so bad to believe it's just bad weather

That somehow we'll make it through

And next year it'll all be better

[Chorus]

And the confetti will fall

Broken glass on the floor

And the fireworks will look even brighter

Counting down till midnight

Holding hands in a line

Making promises when we should know better

You won't let me down when you wake up sober

You'll stick around when the party's over

You won't let my heart break, there'll be no tears

Next New Year

[Verse 2]

Next New Year, we'll really mean it

When we say that "This year, we're gonna make it"

Next New Year, there won't be sad songs

Just play "Fairytale of New York"

And you'll kiss me, make my heart stop

[Chorus]

And the confetti will fall

Broken glass on the floor

And the fireworks will look even brighter

Counting down till midnight

Holding hands in a line

Making promises when we should know better

You won't let me down when you wake up sober

You'll stick around when the party's over

You won't let my heart break, there'll be no tears

Next New Year

[Bridge]

Say we'll make it, say we're fine

Say this New Year's not goodbye

Say this time, it's not the end

If we can't mean it, we'll pretend

[Chorus]

The confetti will fall

Broken glass on the floor

And the fireworks will look even brighter

Counting down till midnight

Holding hands in a line

Making promises when we should know better

You won't let me down when you wake up sober

You'll stick around when the party's over

You won't let my heart break, there'll be no tears

Next New Year

[Outro]

Say we'll make it, say we're fine

Say this New Year's not goodbye

Say this time, it's not the end

Next New Year

You won't let me down when you wake up sober

You'll stick around when the party's over

You won't let my heart break, there'll be no tears

Next New Year
