New Year - Drew Holcomb & The Neighbors

Fireside conversations

Bourbon on our breath

Laughter in the kitchen

The children make a mess

From the front porch to the backyard

Tragedy in between

It’s a New Year

It’s a new song

It’s the same mystery

We talk about your brother

Stories left unheard

You share blood but you don’t share words

Same room on Holidays

No apologies

It’s a New Year

It’s a new song

It’s the same mystery

Cool of October

We feel the sorrow of St. Jude

Void between strangers as the clock quickly moves

It’s a long way from paradise

A long way from Eden’s Tree

It’s a New Year

It’s a new song

It’s the same mystery

Six months turns to six years

Time is like a ghost

Lost in my mind again

Yet suddenly I’m alone

That loneliness comes and goes

It speaks harsh words to me

It’s a New Year

It’s a new song

It’s the same mystery

Walking through my neighborhood

I have nothing left to say

Life and death they never rest

And I still got bills to pay

On earth as is in heaven

Don’t make sense to me

It’s a New Year

It’s a new song

It’s the same mystery

It’s a New Year

It’s a new song

It’s the same mystery
