you know I never used to drink
but these days
it's my only link
to understanding
what it is
to cope with loss
to feel regret

my how time has really flown
just yesterday I had someone
these days I have the extra s___e
in my bed there's a guitar case
that's sleeping where you used to be
oh you know I never used to drink this way

did I just hear a noise at my door
I go to check but nobody's there

today I found a photograph
of me when I was 10 and laughing
oh it's funny how a life
can change from wondering why the sky is gray
and to abandoning caution giving time away
like something you can give for free
like happiness has just one key
but things aren't always what they seem
because every failure is once a dream
and mine its still has never changed
I wished to write a song that never fades

did I just hear a noise at my door
I go to check but nobody's there

I just realized it's new years eve
well that's my way of keeping track of time
because fate has never failed
it seems I always spend this night alone
and wonder where you are
and who you plan on kissing
when this year expires
leaving in its wake
a trail of memories
you can't escape the past I hear
it's just a burden
that you have to bear

hold a second someone's at my door
I open up the locks
and twist the doorknob
all to find the girl
whom I am writing this song for
my mouth opens to speak
with tears upon my cheeks
my body says
"hello Emma I'm happy to see you again"
