New Year, Same Us

[Verse 1]
You show up at my door
In that old green sweater
Glitter on your cheeks
From the party we left earlier
Two paper cups of tea
Steam fogs up the window
You laugh and say
“Another year”
But it feels like home

[Chorus]
New year
Same us
Still the ones that I can run to
Fireworks fading
But your hand is still in mine
If everything changes
If the whole world comes undone
New year
Same us
And that’s enough this time

[Verse 2]
We talk about our plans
All the things we’re scared of
You trace them in the air
Like you’re drawing constellations
You say
“If I fall short
Promise you won’t leave me”
I point right at your heart
Say
“You’re already where you need to be”

[Chorus]

[Bridge]
[low vocal register] When the countdown’s over
And the noise goes quiet
It’s just your soft shoulder
And my tired eyes
[build] I don’t need confetti
To know I’m lucky
You’re the wish I get
Every January

[Chorus]
[Chorus]
