New Year's Night

[Intro]

New Year’s night,

The ocean, you and me…

Who knew that one night

Could change everything?

[Verse 1]

New Year’s night, down by the ocean,

Never knew I’d start a life in that moment.

Two weeks later, you had to leave,

But somehow you still stayed with me.

Different roads, different cities,

Late-night calls when I couldn’t sleep.

Miles between us, but somehow I knew,

No matter the distance, I’d come back to you.

[Chorus]

You were the turning of the tide,

The quiet answer I couldn’t hide.

Every mile only pulled me near,

Every goodbye made it crystal clear.

If that night could begin again,

I’d choose your hand like I chose it then.

New Year’s night, beneath that blue,

Everything changed when I found you.

[Verse 2]

Postcards fading beside my window,

Your voice still soft through the telephone.

We learned the shape of patient hearts,

Holding on while the seasons passed.

Some days felt longer than the coastline,

Some dreams took time to reach the right side.

But every morning brought me through,

A little closer, a little more true.

[Chorus]

You were the turning of the tide,

The quiet answer I couldn’t hide.

Every mile only pulled me near,

Every goodbye made it crystal clear.

If that night could begin again,

I’d choose your hand like I chose it then.

New Year’s night, beneath that blue,

Everything changed when I found you.

[Bridge]

Now the calendar turns, but I still remember

The salt in the air and the cold of December.

One small moment, one honest view,

A whole new life beginning with you.

[Final Chorus]

You were the turning of the tide,

The quiet answer I couldn’t hide.

Every mile only pulled me near,

Every goodbye made it crystal clear.

If that night could begin again,

I’d choose your hand like I chose it then.

New Year’s night, beneath that blue,

Everything changed when I found you.

[Outro]

New Year’s night,

The ocean, you and me…

Still the best beginning

I could ever believe.
