December Thirty-One

It's been a long year
I sure am glad that its over
Crosses to bear and bridges to cross
trouble, she's been our companion
Like a detour sign that makes sure we stay lost
Now the grand stand is full and confetti's taken flight
The countdown's started
It's only seconds to midnight

Throw your arms around me
Looks like we're gonna make it through
Dance like your worries have fallen
Far away to a place where they won't worry you
Yeah leave them all behind
Way back there in time
December thirty-one
Eleven fifty-nine

Now my pockets empty
But the champagnes gold
Look at you laughing after all that we've been through
With the world removed
My shoulders are getting lighter
And your eyes shine a brighter shade of blue
We're cleaner than forgiveness
We're innocence reborn
Stretch out your fingertips
And feel the calm after the storm

Throw your arms around me
Looks like we're gonna make it through
Dance like your worries have fallen
Far away to a place where they won't worry you
Yeah leave them all behind
Way back there in time
December thirty-one
Eleven fifty-nine
