lyrics

Happy New Year - Gwade
--------------------------------
Let down by you
You left me standing in the snow
And you've left me standing here before
But I had nowhere else to go...

Let go of me
I don't deserve this pain
But I'll be still be standing here
When the snow turns into rain

Then when you want me
Reason gives way to the rush
And I give in to your touch / perhaps a bit too much

And I know that I'd be better off
Running into walls
But everytime you call / I fall / In love with you again

(But) Let me take a stand!
The way you treat me isn't fair
I want so . much . more
And I know that you don't care

Lang syne, my dear
My old acquaintance still remains
We'll take a cup of kindness over here
To clear my busy brain

I can't imagine life
Without you by my side
But when you take me for a ride / I keep it all inside

And even after the morning
When we wake up in a haze
This occasional liaison / stays on / my. cra. zy. mind...

Let the saints be praised
I don't believe what I see
Three hours late and drunk
But I'm ecstatic that you stumbled into me

So let it snow, let it snow, let it snow (all night)
Now that you're here
When morning comes, you'll leave me again
But tonight - tonight - tonight (stop)
It's my happy new year
