Well, we could stay up all night talking, That's the contact I have been craving
A meaningful conversation, something a little less draining
When I stay out past midnight, I wake up dehydrated
Mouth feels like a dustpan, face feels like an ashtray
I wish that this New Year's Eve was as happy as last year
We tried to go out, but we ended up back here
It's been a while since we went out dancing, since we got talking, since we were Strangers
I need a shave and I need to get a haircut
I've got a two-piece suit, but you know it isn't tailored
I need my shoes shined, shirt ironed, I need some time to get myself together
I need a train ticket in my pocket, then I'll travel across the country and go see you again
I wish that this New Year's Eve was as happy as last year
We tried to go out, but we ended up back here
It's been a while since we went out dancing, since we got talking, since we were strangers
But sometimes strange things happen
