Your Year 04:40
The ball drops in New York City And the slate's wiped clean again Necks crane, champagne In a shivering sea of shimmering sequin It's a mad parade, a masquerade Of failure, hope and sin And I’m standing at the heart of it CHORUS: Waiting on love to come around Everybody feels a little lost, Why can't I feel a little found? Waiting for a sign cut crystal clear Lady Liberty, or Lady Luck lean in and whisper in my ear "This is gonna be your year" I got a new notebook for Christmas Prayers and resolutions in my pen No shame, gonna name Every demon in me, a revolution underneath my skin It's a promenade, a motorcade Of every man I've ever been And I'm waving at the front of it CHORUS I hear my name like sirens cut the silence in the dead of night I'm changing all my ways and holding fast to the morning light Every rundown ghost letting go of my memory Lift me up, set my feet upon the rock and set me free When the dust begins to settle, and the seasons come and go Things change, life's strange I'm feeling like a matador running at a bull An avalanche cascade, a dream decayed But I got a hand I'll never fold Cause this year’s gonna be different Waiting on love to come around Everybody feels a little lost, Why can't I feel a little found? Waiting for a sign cut crystal clear Lady Liberty, or Lady Luck anybody lean in and whisper in my ear "This is gonna be your year"

Maybe it's the full moon or the crisp autumn air I wanna change my name again and shave off all my hair Could be the bourbon in my blood or the sleep that I don't get Baby teach me to forgive and I can teach you to forget I’m stuck here howling at the moon (Let me go, let me go) Til the sun comes up and I can talk to you (Let me know, let me know) My eyes may wander, I may play with fire But you have, you have, you have all of my desire I can tell you you’ve been burned before but babe you’re not alone I’ve got debts, I’m still paying for; sins I can’t atone It's in the water that I drink, or the prayers that I don't pray I can teach you how to leave if you can teach me how to stay I'm stuck here staring in the mirror (What to do what to do) Nothing true is ever clear I want you My eyes may wander, I may play with fire But you have, you have, you have all of my desire Though my mind gets restless, and my feet get tired You have, you have, you have all my of my desire Deep beneath my callouses Well beyond my walls I want all the madness of your fractured heart the failures, fears and flaws My eyes may wander, I may play with fire But you have, you have, you have all of my desire My mind is restless, And my heart gets tired You have, you have, you have all my of my desire My night are sleepless, I may play with fire You have you have you have all of my desire Though my mind is wild And I walk that wire you have you have you have all of my desire you have you have you have all of my desire you have you have you have all of my desire

I’m not perfect Except for in my mother’s eyes But one day she’ll realize who I am I am a sinner I’ve lived for women and for whiskey And the God who lives within me When I can I’ve got potential It is a blessing and a curse I could do better, I’ve done worse Than I am It’s Sunday Morning and I’m in between towns Long white lines will lead my home This road is unlike any church I’ve ever found Jesus let me, Jesus let me go I’m always searching Searching high and searching low From the spirit to the bone For myself I am broken And always begging for a fix The flame is swallowing the wick In my soul It’s Sunday Morning and I’m in between towns Let the sunrise lead my home This skyline unlike any church I’ve ever found Jesus let me, Jesus let me go I’m getting closer I know redemptions gonna come I can taste it on the tip Of my togue It’s Sunday Morning and I’m in between towns Let this full tank take me home This bus is unlike any church I’ve ever found Jesus let me, Jesus let me... It’s Sunday Morning and I’m in between towns Loneliness will lead my home This life is unlike any church I’ve ever found Jesus let me, Lord don’t let me Jesus let me Lord don’t let me go

Nobody wants to be alone Yeah, but nobody talks anymore I make a late night cold call home But I’m not sure what for. Maybe I’ll join the circus, maybe I’ll sell my soul I think I’ll move to Paris or chase down that girl in San Francisco I could run, I could take the next flight anywhere, I could walk away real slow, Or dig a little deeper and take back my soul I’m always looking for an angle In the space between wrong and right I’m always begging for an angel Plenty of battles, just not enough fight Maybe I’ll join a choir, maybe I’ll sing “Amazing Grace” I think I’ll start a fire, just outside of Heaven’s gates I could run, I could take the next flight anywhere, I could walk away real slow, Or dig a little deeper and take back my soul No matter where I go, I’m still gonna be there So maybe if I wanna grow, I should learn to be here... Not gonna run, Not gonna take the next flight anywhere, Not gonna walk away at all, I’m gonna dig a little deeper and take back my soul

I'm a wildcard, a Jack of hearts, I’m the Joker of the pack. You got that magic touch baby and you're cutting me in half I need an anchor or an angel, a copy of St. Peter's key You're my sweet sweet taste of Eden in the deep deep calloused East It wasn't supposed to be this good, history said it never could We've got timeless love, can't count the seconds babe Timeless love, the days just slip away I used to run like the Nile, I used to scatter like the wind But now I'm standing still for you baby, like the lakes up in Michigan You're a cannonball buried in my rubble, you're a healer in disguise You're a whole new breed of trouble, the kind they don't advertise I've got ghosts hiding between the sheets, but they don't scare you so they don't scare me We’ve got timeless love, It's never gonna fade Timeless love, we got time to waste Like Mona Lisa's sheepish grin, the Sistine ceiling's permanence, a newborn innocence... time moves fast, time moves slow, time doesn't move at all Timeless love, an institution babe We keep spinning circles around the sun but our love just doesn't age Timeless love, We don't have to wait Cause with Timeless love, time is ours to take Time is ours to take Time is ours to take Time is ours to take
