New Year Lyrics

I'm running 'round in circles
Trying to find some peace of mind
Cause’ it's a lonely place when
All that we need we cannot find
Wait, Wait, Cause’ I don't wanna be lost
Wait, Wait, cause’ I don't wanna be lost
And I don't wanna be the one to drag you down

Wait
for a new day, for a new year
I'll be standing on my own
In a new place, with my hands out
Looking for the answers

It's such a sweet solution
To close our eyes and walk in line
And all our contributions
Just seem to fade away with time
Wait, Wait, Cause’ I don't wanna be lost
Wait, Wait, cause’ I don't wanna be lost
And I don't wanna be the one to drag you down

I can't stand here, waiting
With my hands out, for the ceiling
But I wont lie, I wont try
I can't walk such a straight line
And these bright lights, surround me
People are so friendly
But I won't lie, I won't try
I can't pretend that it's alright

Wait
for a new day, for a new year
I'll be standing on my own
In a new place, with my hands out
Looking for the answers
Write down your name (x4)

This Year (If We Fall In Love)

Wait
for a new day, for a new year
I'll be standing on my own
In a new place, with my hands out
Looking for the answers

Wait
for a new day, for a new year
I'll be standing on my own
In a new place, with my hands out
Looking for the answers
Write down your name (x4)

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

Obviously this guy is desperately looking for love. "Cause it's a lonely place when all that we need we cannot find." He's tired of looking "I won't try," because we all know looking for love just doesn't work. All he can do is close his eyes, walk in line and live his life with his "hands out" for someone to "write down their name." After all, every new day and every new year brings new possibilities.
