New Year's Eve Lyrics

The birds have all gone south

Leaving a bitter taste in my mouth

December's always been so dreary

Glad it's only two more months 'til the end of February

And the first girl that I wrote a song about

Well, she is married now

And I feel older than I have ever felt

Another year of falling down and getting back up again under my belt

And I can say

That I've finally learned to play

The best game that I can with the cards that I've been dealt

Your father took his life

Leaving you behind at 25

December's never looked more dreary

Can't find a silver lining at the end of February

But take a look at daddy's grown up girl now

I bet, you'll figure it out somehow

And I feel older than I have ever felt

Another year of falling down and getting back up again under my belt

And I can say

That I've finally learned to play

The best game that I can with the cards that I've been dealt

And I feel older than I have ever felt

Another year of falling down and getting back up again under my belt

And I can say

That I've finally learned to play

The best game that I can with the cards that I've been dealt
