LYRICS: Like New Year's Day It looks like rain And that's fine with me it's like we've been living On the sun lately I want to dance With your wet skin As the world disappears And daylight ends You're perfect air Like New Year's Day And like New Year's Day We go away I say your name I cross my heart I'd be forsaken If we were to part I'm not faking I'm not stealing I'm in love with a feeling I'm not faking I'm not stealing I'm in love with a feeling I've learned the hard way It's hard to make love stay But if we could Then we should If you'd agree To stay with me If only you would Then that'd be good An airplane glides Over frozen hills A vapor trail There's ice on the sill But here's it's warm And she's downstairs I think I'll stop And go down there We'll pour some tea She'll smile at me A spoonful of salt With pure honey A metaphor For dark with light It's always dusk But that's alright I'm not faking I'm not stealing I'm in love with a feeling I'm not faking I'm not stealing I'm in love with a feeling I've learned the hard way It's hard to make love stay But if we could Then we should If you'd agree To stay with me If only you would Then that'd be... I'm not faking I'm not stealing I'm in love with a feeling I've learned the hard way It's hard to make love stay But if we could Then we should If you'd agree To stay with me If only you would Then that'd be... If only you would If only you would If only you would Then that'd be good -All the material used in this video, is property of the artist who recorded this material.
