When the ball dropped I was in the air
On a flight back to New York
Though the moment escaped me
I still got the vertigo
You never see it coming
Never feel it till it knocks you out
Isn't it so easy to say
The signs all pointed one way
But am I deluded in thinking
Things could've gone different
Retracing a year so concise and so clear
We were slow to begin but I didn't want it to end at all
So are we dealing in honesty
Or hiding behind old habits?
Losing sight of the line between
Our privacy and our secrets
I've been changing
Faster than I can say
With only your good graces
To light the way
Let's complete the dialogue
No matter where it leads
Every word you say is sacred
As it surfaces to meet me
From somewhere far away
Casting shadows, saving face
So are we dealing in honesty
Or hiding behind old habits?
Losing sight of the line between
Our privacy and our secrets
I've been changing
Faster than I can say
With only your good graces
To light the way
