lyrics

Yesterday was New Year's Eve,
I walked through the crowd with a flower
I wanted so badly to believe we would meet at our appointed hour
I scanned the faces all around
Everybody was having fun
But alas! My love could not be found as we counted down to one

10, 9, 8, I just couldn't wait
7, 6, 5, I was glad to be alive
4, 3, 2, all I thought about was you
But when they counted down to 1, we're all done
10, 9, 8, I just couldn't wait
7, 6, 5, I was glad to be alive
4, 3, 2, all I thought about was you
But then they counted down to 1, now we're all done

There she stood in a state of bliss
A look of joy upon her face
As she was leaning in for her first kiss my broken heart was launched into space
The night went black as she kissed his lips
The stars were bright but so far away
As the countdown echoed in my rocket ship
Now I float through space on New Year's Day

10, 9, 8, I just couldn't wait
7, 6, 5, I was glad to be alive
4, 3, 2, all I thought about was you
But when they counted down to 1, we're all done
10, 9, 8, I just couldn't wait
7, 6, 5, I was glad to be alive
4, 3, 2, all I thought about was you
But then they counted down to 1, we're all done
