smoked todays last cigarette
drank my last glass of wine
gave up on the television
but I've been known to change my mind
but you and i we’ve been through this
half a hundred times
i’ll be dancing here alone….you can join in any time
put on that pretty blue dress…i’ll undress you with my mind
but you and i both know…you’ve been gone from here for sometime
but if i got my christmas wish
its always new years in my mind
and we’d be dancing here tonight
i wrote you a pretty song
and you did your best to give me a life
well she’s 11 now
and i tell her about you all the time

could have told myself a thousand lies
'bout the things that I will change
the way that I could hold you up
and make it new again
could have said a couple words
just to make it all work out
but instead I face these barren walls
and a future filled with doubt
no new year's gonna change the way
the way that I have lived
a new face is a mask
and yeah, we know they wear thin
no new year's gonna make up for
the things that fill my past
but at least a new year's further from the pain
and closer to my last...
so many things so many times
I could have chose a different path
the road that was less traveled or
or the line drawn on your map
I could have reached up to the sky
and maybe fallen on bended knee
but instead I chose the easy way
there's only one way left for me
no new year's gonna change the way
the way that I have lived
a new face is a mask
and yeah, we know they wear thin
no new year's gonna make up for
all the things that fill my past
but at least a new year's further from the pain
and closer to my last... closer to my last

I thought I had this under wraps
nothing but calm seas under clear skies
I thought you'd always be right by my side
I watched the towers going down
one by one, gone to dust
I had no weapon, no voice to defend
send back this river
turn back the floods
there's no breath in my lungs
how could we know it?
who could have guessed?
there was so much to lose
I thought I saw
a break in the night clouds
and in the days and years ahead
will we remember what we were?
I still see your peaceful brown eyes
maybe we'll hold on to something
maybe they'll give us that
after all they've taken away
send back this river
turn back the floods
there's no breath in my lungs
how could we know it?
who could have guessed?
there was so much to lose
I thought I saw
a break in the night clouds

Resolutions every day
I don't have much more words to say
Is it just the voice inside my head
A promise here and another one there
I don't really know if I even care
Tomorrow is the day I may be dead
There's only thing we need to change
It's in with love and out with pain
Respectful acts to show your fellow friend
Yeah it's easy to live with hate
It fills your soul but lets debate
Tell me how that hate can ever win
Resolutions every year
But is this what we need to hear
If you really want to make a change
Just bring a smile to someone's day
Compassion is the only way
To live your life with love is not so strange

Step up, step out
Loud and clear throughout the town
Wake up and fight for what you feel
Bad luck, no doubt
What's lost, it can be found
And don't pretend it's no big deal
Prepare to fall down
Get ready to take a dive
You'll have to make mistakes
If you want to feel so alive
Prepare to fall down
Get ready to take a dive
C'mon and join the club
Spend your time on things you love
It's OK to let yourself be afraid
What is, what was
Don't beat yourself up for the things you've done
Get up and live another day
Prepare to fall down
Get ready to take a dive
You'll have to make mistakes
If you want to feel so alive
Prepare to fall down
Get ready to take a dive
Dive to the ocean floor and back again
Fly 'til you can move no more against the wind
Cry until you finally begin to...
Step up, step out
Loud and clear throughout the town
Prepare to fall down
Get ready to take a dive
You'll have to make mistakes
If you want to feel so alive
Prepare to fall down
Get ready to take a dive
Get ready to take a dive

Hugs instead of Facebook, hellos over hate
Search for truth and lend a helping hand
Kindness over venom, lead with tenderness
Speak in words we all can understand
We Can Do Better
Learn to play piano, give a second chance
Make a friend or open up your eyes
Instead of talk just listen, hold a door and smile
Volunteer your time or compromise
Instead of “no" be open, smart phones put to sleep
Peace and love, can be your piece of mind
Gym instead of pinot, walk instead of drive
Read a book or whatever you can find

Stop listening to the silence
Trying to hear what isn't there
There's plenty to be said
For the lines that are not dead
It's none of my business what you think of me
Anymore just like before
It's none of my business what you think of me
And I won't give it no mind, no more
Other worlds I have imagined
Whispered just beyond my ears
You can't know what is here
Does newness cause you fear?
It's none of my business what you think of me
Anymore just like before
It's none of my business what you think of me
And I won't give it no mind, no more

Its a thought so high that it just might get through
Its a telephone call even though I just met you
YOu're the bow in the quiver thats never gonna let me down
Fly, is the bird so high that it just might get through
to the telephone call even though it might miss you
you're the bow in my quiver thats never gonna let me down
never gonna let me down
never gonna let me
Its the thought so high that it just might get through
Its the telephone call even though I just met you
You're the bow in my quiver thats never gonna let me down
