The kiss on New Year’s Day

Verse

It’s a night in my life I’ll remember

Until my dying day.

It was the thirty first of December.

Might have been New Year’s Day.

Pre chorus

The hour was late, the moon hung low.

Its glow lit your silhouette.

The wine was white, your dress was red.

The kiss I’ll never forget.

Chorus

Long and slow it took hold of my heart

And still holds it today.

You and I in the light of the moon

The kiss on New Year’s Day.

Verse

You are the light of my life, my savior

Rescued this sinner’s soul.

You were the unknown in life’s equation.

The love that made me whole.

Pre chorus

The hour was late, the moon hung low.

Its glow lit your silhouette.

The wine was white, your dress was red.

The kiss I’ll never forget.

Chorus

Long and slow it took hold of my heart

And still holds it today.

You and I in the light of the moon

The kiss on New Year’s Day.

Bridge

Every New Year’s Eve we celebrate

What that kiss began.

Three hundred sixty-five days a year.

I’m a lucky man.
