Looking through the windowpane
Of a dark and dusty bar
I got sadder glass by glass
Faces passed and went ahead
The last night of the year
The city's ready for the biggest eve
Celebrating the dying day
Of an old newborn
People all over the bridge downtown
Music will spread all around
And call you down
Find someone and ask yourself
Ask someone and find yourself
Worth living and taking the risk
Or better remain in your shell?
Between the crowd I saw a boy
Standing there beside a girl
He ran into her when he was twelve
But he'll never find the words to say
That he's dying for love
His heart falls in a firestorm
'Cause she will dance with another man
Until the crack of dawn
People all over the bridge downtown
Music will spread all around and call you down
Find someone and ask yourself
Ask someone and find yourself
Worth living and taking the risk
Cause people all over the bridge downtown
Music will spread all around
And calm me down
Lose someone and blame yourself
Blame someone and lose yourself
Worth living and taking the risk
Or better remain in your shell?
