Paroles de New Year's Resolution

the sound of your voice is calling me back again to an empty house
and in the meantime, seems the meantime has been what i've been about
i've been letting it all hole up inside, like a mouse in the winter
but i found a way to grow up inside, and i'm ready to re-enter
so i'll enter and say
starting now i'm letting go
of everything tied-up and perfect and well-timed
this is it, what i have
and i wont apologize, or waste the light
i'll return to the game
find a way to break open tonight
and it starts tonight

last year i decided as my resolution
to go out and live for love and my friends
but then i forgot, see, and it fell by the wayside
i played it well, but it's played me out in the end
now i'm alone, the party goes on without me
i think of my father, how he'd shake his head
and say "it's time to play it safe, son" but he'd miss the point
that maybe they should let go a little instead
so i say to them

starting now i'm letting go
of everything tied-up and perfect and well-timed and it starts tonight

I read about your new resolution
you know it's so hard to be sure
but on my way away from the wastful
you'll see me walkin’ out your front door

starting now i'm letting go
of everything tied-up and perfect and well-timed
this is it, what i have
and i wont apologize
starting now i'm letting go
of everything tied-up and perfect and well-timed
well-timed, well-timed and now
this is it, it’s what i have
and i wont apologize, or waste the light
i'll return to the game (I’ll return to the game)
find a way to break it open
and I’m breakin’ it open tonight
and it starts tonight

last year i decided as my resolution
to go out and live for love and my friends
but then i forgot, see, and it fell by the wayside
i played it well, but it's played me out in the end
