Song Review: “New Year’s Without You” by Jay Denton | A Rock Discovery
Music Review:
“Μέσα από αυτή τη δυναμική και αληθινή ερμηνεία των φωνητικών, νιώθουμε όλα μας τα συναισθήματα να ξεπηδούν από μέσα μας και να βρίσκουν διέξοδο. Η μελαγχολία που μας σκιάζει διαλύεται μέσα από τη ζωντάνια της μελωδίας και οι δυσκολίες απομακρύνονται. Ο ρυθμός μάς ξεσηκώνει και μας γεμίζει χαρά, μη αφήνοντας χώρο στη θλίψη.”

Lyrics of Jay Denton – New Year’s Without You
Intro:
M-m-m-m
M-m-m, M-m-m
Chorus:
Did you go party
Did you work late
Did you crash early
Just to crush it New Year’s Day
Did you think about me
Or leave me in the past
Turn the page
And let me rest in the last chapter
I don’t know what to say
When everybody’s got their resolutions made
I don’t know what to do
Cause I don’t wanna be here
Walking into new years without you
Verse 1 –
The holiday’s a perfect time
To fail to get you off my mind
And I, well…I failed in style
Christmas, birthday, New Year’s Eve
I could crawl into the memories
While I raise a glass
And fake a smile
Pre 1 –
Midnight’s here with a fresh clean slate
But my mind is wandering 3 time zones away
Chorus:
Did you go party
Did you work late
Did you crash early
Just to crush it New Year’s Day
Did you think about me
Or leave me in the past
Turn the page
And let me rest in the last chapter
I don’t know what to say
When everybody’s got their resolutions made
I don’t know what to do
Cause I don’t wanna be here
Walking into new years without you
Verse 2 –
I heard you flew to Mexico
Then made it back to the west coast
It looked like a damn good time
I’m sittin’ under Georgia pines
With a fire burnin’ through the night
Where just months ago I still called you mine
Pre 2 –
People talking ‘bout hopes and dreams
While I’m just staring at these flames wondering
Chorus:
Did you go party
Did you work late
Did you crash early
Just to crush it New Year’s Day
Did you think about me
Or leave me in the past
Turn the page
And let me rest in the last chapter
I don’t know what to say
When everybody’s got their resolutions made
I don’t know what to do
Cause I don’t wanna be here
Walking into new years without you
Bridge
Are you workin’ at the bar
Or lightin’ up the boulevards
Out there lovin your new start
Last year started with my kiss
Pressed up close against your lips
Now it’s just cold here on my skin
TAG –
Know I’ve got to cut ya loose
But I don’t wanna drink champage
And toast to New Year’s without you
