Nameling - New Year's Eve

〈Verse〉
Do not stay for me ‘cause I’m not the world
No not even close
I am just a temporary settlement, a dot on the map
I may not even be here once you make your way back
And you are not landlocked you’re so near to the coast
You could sail where you please all you need is a boat
So do not stay for me ‘cause I’m not a god
I’m just a ghost

〈Verse〉
Have you seen the king of heaven above
He told me your name and taught me about love
And to keep it close to my chest, but if love is to die I should lay it to rest
I know you’re thinking about leaving, I think we know you should go
‘Cause you’re looking for summer, all I am is the snow
So have you seen the king of heaven above
I haven’t seen him in weeks, I think I lost all his love

〈Verse〉
You’re not mine to keep, oh how I wish that you were
I just need some sleep
‘Cause I’m searching my brain, oh even in my dreams
About who you were kissing on New Year’s Eve
I know it’s none of my business and you are who you are
But then you can’t tell me we can defy the stars
‘Cause you’re not mine to keep and now I am sure that you’ll never be
〈Bridge〉
Did you fall asleep and not remember where
And wake up with a stranger and a mess of your hair
And everything is golden, it says so on your arms
But I gave you your space and it did so much harm
Look at me again with those blue-gray eyes
Hold my face in your hands and then kiss me goodbye
Oh did you fall asleep and not remember where
I know you don’t regret it, I know I shouldn’t care

〈Outro〉
Do not stay for me ‘cause I’m not a god I’m just a ghost
