New Year New You
The clock struck twelve and I was a year older
The fireworks went off and I gave a shudder
The cheers went up and I just couldn't bother
The New Year promises so much
But is it just another day?
Promises are made and will be broken
As life and living are never perfect matches
Dreams and lives seem refreshed as the old year disappears
The saga that is life so far keeps rolling on
Some may even wonder when it will all end
I promise to........
I forget as soon as I say what I will do
I don't want to feel tied down
To a moment that might not come true
I'll just live my life from day to day
I will guard my feeling and keep my heart at bay
I will never over reach myself
I will not let my cares smother all the good I do
I will promise to not do what I shouldn't do
As long as it’s pleasurable and doesn't make me blue
I will be whatever the moment calls me to be
I will never give up on living for me and maybe you
Fingers crossed this new year will bless you
And will favour whatever I do
