[Verse 1: Male] Your coat is gold from the room's soft light You steal my glass and you steal my time The clock above us forgets to move When your hand finds mine in the crowded room [Verse 2: Female] I wrote one wish on a paper crown Then laughed so hard that the ink ran down If midnight asks what I want to keep I'll say your laugh and the way you lean [Pre-Chorus: Duet] Ten, and the whole room starts to count Nine, and I turn to you Eight, let the old year leave us now Seven, I know what I’ll choose [Chorus: Duet] When the year turns over, stay close to me Let the first new moment be yours and me All of the days ahead, whatever they bring I want your hand in mine when the bells ring When the year turns over, kiss me again Make this our beginning, not just the end [Verse 3: Male] The window fills with a burst of white You say my name and the world feels right [Verse 4: Female] Your paper crown is crooked now I fix it gently; you take a bow [Pre-Chorus: Duet] Six, and your fingers lace with mine Five, and the room leans in Four, we leave the old year behind Three, let the new one begin [Chorus: Duet] When the year turns over, stay close to me Let the first new moment be yours and me All of the days ahead, whatever they bring I want your hand in mine when the bells ring When the year turns over, kiss me again Make this our beginning, not just the end [Bridge: Duet] No grand promise written in the sky Just your warm shoulder next to mine One small wish, and it has come true Every January starts with you [Final Chorus: Duet] When the year turns over, stay close to me Let the first new moment be yours and me All of the days ahead, whatever they bring I want your hand in mine when the bells ring When the year turns over, kiss me again Make this our beginning, not just the end [Outro: Duet] Your hand in mine when the bells ring Our first small wish, our everything
