Baby, it's a new year and
I'm going to do it right this time.
I'll quit smoking cigarettes and
drinking so much wine.
Maybe I'll get a haircut and
a new pair of boots.
I'll start walking past these
memories of youth.
There will be no more crying
from sleepless nights.
I'll get my act together and
put my goals in sight.
Oh, with my new boots
I'll start my journey far beyond
these memories of youth.
It's been a long time coming.
I've got a hard road ahead,
but I think I can make it
with the old times dead.
Well, it was a new year
and I didn't do it right that time.
I kept on with the cigarettes.
I drank a lot more wine.
I didn't get a haircut and
couldn't afford the boots.
Means, I couldn't get past
the memories of youth.
