New Year Lyrics

I'm far away from that place

That I chose to leave

That little desert town

Made my escape, ran away

And supposedly

It crumbled to the ground

But now I'm tired of the road

Doubt is running through my head

And I'm kinda missing home again

But just as I am losing hope

There's a city up ahead

There's a sign that's down the road and it says

Welcome to the new year

We could be your first stop

Got so much to do here

It'll make your jaw drop

Leave all of your blues, dear

Let this be your fresh start

Got nothing to lose

Fear's got a hold of your heart

But this is the New Year

Welcome to the New Year, oh

To the New Year

This is the New Year, oh

I take these bags that I packed

And I set them down

I think I'm here to stay for a while

Stake in the ground that I've found

Oh, I'm gonna build a house

The past will never ever defile

So if you're tired of the road

Doubt is running through your head

And you're kinda missing home again

And if you're tired of the old

There's a city up ahead

And a sign that's down the road that says

Welcome to the new year

We could be your first stop

Got so much to do here

It'll make your jaw drop

Leave all of your blues, dear

Let this be your fresh start

Got nothing to lose

Fear's got a hold of your heart

But this is the New Year

Welcome to the New Year, oh

To the New Year

This is the New Year, oh

It was a long, long ride

Through the desert and the mountains

Wondering if I should turn away

Ooh, I spent some long, long night

Tryna forget all about it

Mind was filled with all of my mistakes

Oh, it was a long, long ride

In a never ending chapter

Didn't think the journey would end

But when I saw those city lights

I just couldn't get there faster

And when I got there, they all said

Welcome to the new year

We could be your first stop

Got so much to do here

It'll make your jaw drop

Just leave all of your blues, dear

Let this be your fresh start

Got nothing to lose

Fear's got a hold of your heart

But this is the New Year

Welcome to the New Year, oh

To the New Year

Oh, to the New Year, oh-oh
