New Year's Day - Chuck Prophet

I took a drive by the prison

Wound up at the taco stand

L changed my clothes in the parking lot

And thought about our wedding plans

Then l looked up at the foothills

Where I used to hide with you

You gave me anything I wanted

Now all l want’s a substitute

I’m lost inside my skin

No messages to send

Don’t cry

It’s New Year’s Day again

L came back around

To hide out for the holiday

That was over thirteen months ago

L don’t know if I’ll ever escape

So I’m back where we started

Working from room to room

Yeah, I’m all over the campus

A big man with a mop and a broom

I’m lost inside my skin

No messages to send

Don‘t cry

It’s New Year’s Day again

Last night the champagne was flowin'

Some guys were runnin' off at the mouth

Your name came up In conversation

Then somebody started the count

L woke up ln my Nissan

To the static on the radio

L dialed up a station

Closed my eyes and started to glow

I’m lost inside my skin

No messages to send

Don‘t cry

It’s New Year’s Day again

I’m lost inside my skin

No messages to send

Don‘t cry

It’s New Year’s Day again
