New Year's Eve

[Chorus] Well it's a new year With it comes more than new fears Met a young man who was in tears, he asked me "What induces us to stay here?" I said, "I don't know much and I'm not lying But I think you just have to keep on trying." [Chorus] And I know I am naive, but if anything That's what's going to save me That's what's going to save me [Verse 2] Took a stroll around the neighbourhood Where the trees are swaying People passed in cars with their windows down With a pop song playing A man walked by, walking back and forth the street With a drunken smile to go along He stopped to look at me and say "Child, don't fear doing things wrong." [Chorus] Yet I am still afraid but if anything That's what's going to save me That's what's going to save me [Verse 3] Now I have a lot to learn and I'm starting tonight Got to stop looking at things like they're black and they're white Got to write more songs of a little more Treat my friends better Got to stop worrying about everything to the letter And sometimes when it's too hard to get up It just might be a little call apart [Chorus] But I find it hard to believe, but if anything That's what's going to save me That's what's going to save me [Outro] Tell me, tell me Oh, what's going to save me?
