Here on the eve of the new year
I'm thinking about kissing you
I am writing the last song
A year that has taken me down
And I know that you had to go on living
Though I want you to stay
The times that I didn't show up
And let you give up
The things that you needed to say
To say
A part of me has taken a back seat
To living and loving you
I am tired of the circles
This grief keeps on taking me around
And the kids that we brought here with our wishing
Yeah, they want us to stay
They promise to keep growing up
And I'll keep showing up
To hear what they're needing to say
To say
To say
