Ike Reilly - New Years Eve lyrics

Open up, it's New Year's Eve Living in the best of times Open up, it's New Year's Eve All the swingers have turned to swine We are only here in moments Live to work and then you disappear You had the time, you had the muscle And the will to wander Open up, it's New Year's Eve Kiss the k**ers and the kind and the crude I'm looking, boy, I can't see through you With your head bowed down in your brand-new suit When I was a child, I was your father Now I'm a man, I could be your son You had the time, you had the muscle And the will to wander You walked away Welcome back You looked good, I guess Welcome back You looked reconstructed Open up, it's New Year's Eve Heard the faintest Auld Lang Syne Should old acquaintances be forgotten Or forgiven as whiskey turns to rhymes? You were only here in moments Saved for us in Super 8 You had the time, you had the muscle And the will to wander
