First Aid Kit - New Year's Eve Lyrics






Well it's a new year, with it comes new hope and new fears
Met a young man who was in tears, he asked me
"What induces us to stay here?"
I said, "I don't know much and I'm not lying
But I think you just have to keep on trying"

And I know I am naive, but if anything
That's what's going to save me
That's what's going to save me

Took a stroll around the neighborhood where the trees are swaying
People passed in cars with their windows down, with a pop song playing
A man walked by, rocking back and forth the street with a drunken smile to go along
He stopped to look at me and said, "Child, don't fear doing things wrong"

Yet I am still afraid but if anything
That's what's going to save me
That's what's going to save me

Now I have a lot to learn and I'm starting tonight
Got to stop looking at things like they're black and they're white
Got to write more songs of a little more, treat my friends better
Got to stop worrying about everything to the letter
And sometimes when it's too hard to get on
It just might be you that I'll call upon

But I find it hard to believe, but if anything
That's what's going to save me
That's what's going to save me

Tell me, tell me
Oh, what's going to save me?

    this is always on my new year's eve playlist (including the recent transition from 2018 to 2019), but i always put it at the very end because it just paints such a rich, hopeful tone for the rest of the evening (and year)... love these girls, i really feel like they're in tune with the things we all struggle with and they know how to process them through a beautiful artform. thank you for giving me hope this year again, klara and johanna

    "that's what's going to save me..."
    it really seems like it's written on/for New Year's Eve; the beginning of the year, looking at the stars maybe, sitting on a roof, or seeing the first light of dawn come in... inspiration, quiet hope, taking on a challenge. it's still cold outside, but it's the New Year.
