Fashionably Late (Every New Year’s Day) Lyrics by Shannen James

Fashionably Late (Every New Year’s Day)

2021

[Shannen James]
Lights start dimming
Balloons on the ceiling
And you’re still nowhere in sight
The DJ knows how I’m feeling somehow
Could cut the tension in the room with a knife
I got all dressed up hopin' you’d notice
Rehearsed this a thousand times in my head
Worked myself up thinking that you’d be here
Hoping you’re just fashionably late
You’ll walk in as the last song starts to play
And hold me in your arms as we start to sway
I’ve been dreaming all about this every New Year’s Day
[Paul Dempsey]
I watch them dancing
They walk holding hands and
I start to worry it’s passing us by
No resolutions, I just wanted you but
The clock is ticking its way onto midnight
I grab my jacket, now I’m heading out
Evеrybody’s starting to count it down
Thought I caught a glimpse of you through the crowd
[Paul Dempsey and Shannen James]
Hoping you’re just fashionably latе
You’ll walk in as the last song starts to play
And hold me in your arms as we start to sway
I’ve been dreaming all about this every New Year’s
Confetti starts to rain down to the floor
My eyes can’t pull away from the front door
Oh, it can’t be only me who feels this way
I’ve been dreaming all about this every New Year’s Day
Smoke's gettin' heavy, I’m hypnotised
Head full of red wine, we’re wasting time
Thought that you’d made it
My heart is breaking
You were meant to be mine...
Hold me in your arms as we start to sway
I’ve been dreaming all about this every New Year’s
Confetti covers everything in sight
Lovers disappear into the night
Oh, it can’t be only me who feels this way
I’ve been dreaming all about this every goddamn day
Oh, I’ve been dreaming, dreaming every New Year’s Day
