What's left of the autumn leaves
Shaken in the blizzard breeze
Cutting through the white
On lonely copper trees
Driving in my car
On the interstate
Thinking hard on the year behind me
On New Year's Eve
And I don't know why I'm sad
I always seem to get this funny way A little sentimental
Longing for the old days
And I don't know what I'd change
But things just can't stay the same So here's to moving on
And finding what we need On New Year's Eve
I live a lucky life
I'm happy at the core
I've got a lot of great things So why do I still want more?
There just ain't the time Life goes by so fast
Gotta leave some things behind you Only the best things last
And I don't know why I'm sad I always seem to get this funny way
A little sentimental Longing for the old days
And I don't know what I'd change But things just can't stay the same
So here's to moving on And finding what we need
On New Year's Eve
So here I'm going back
to the well
Get my heart back straight
I've been searching for myself
And I've gone astray
And I don't know why I'm sad I always seem to get this funny way
A little sentimental Longing for the old days
And I don't know what I'd change I don't want more of just the same
So here's to moving on And finding what we need
On New Year's Eve
