- We are sitting at a table in a bar in Baltimore
Its the last night of December And the room is nearly full
And the front door pulls a draft in every time it opens wide
And you are telling me a story From another time and life
And the waitress brings our order And were tucked in mighty close
And I feel like we belong among The living and these ghosts
And I know that I am dreaming As I memorize each part
In the telling lies a reverie
In the details lie the heart
Like the folds of summer dresses
Like the scent upon my wrist
Like the way you played guitar Like a boxer punches with his fist
And taken or just lost to me Its better now to say
I dwell in possibility On New Years Day
Theres a jukebox or a bandstand And were on another round
And the nights just getting started Or the nights just winding down
And your stories are not clouded yet by the ale Or by the gin They just make me feel as if Ive known you
All my life again Like the folds of summer dresses
Like the scent upon my wrist
Like the way you played guitar
Like a boxer punches with his fist
And taken or just lost to me Its better now to say I dwell in possibility
On New Years Day
And this is what it looked like When we started walking home The night sky bleached to silver Against the citys bones
In dreams or in our waking
It's just enough to say
Love and grace and endless flowers
Be ours on New Years Day
And the folds of summer dresses
And the bangles on my wrist And the way you played guitar Like a boxer punches with his fist And taken or just lost to us Its better now to say
We dwell in possibility
On New Years Day
