Swift, Taylor - New Year's Day Lyrics






There's glitter on the floor after the party
Girls carrying their shoes down in the lobby
Candle wax and Polaroids on the hardwood floor
You and me from the night before, but

Don't read the last page
But I stay when you're lost, and I'm scared
And you're turning away
I want your midnights
But I'll be cleaning up bottles with you on New Year's Day

You squeeze my hand three times in the back of the taxi
I can tell that it's gonna be a long road
I'll be there if you're the toast of the town, babe
Or if you strike out and you're crawling home

Don't read the last page
But I stay when it's hard, or it's wrong
Or we're making mistakes
I want your midnights
But I'll be cleaning up bottles with you on New Year's Day

Hold on to the memories, they will hold on to you
Hold on to the memories, they will hold on to you
Hold on to the memories, they will hold on to you
And I will hold on to you

Please don't ever become a stranger
Whose laugh I could recognize anywhere
Please don't ever become a stranger
Whose laugh I could recognize anywhere

There's glitter on the floor after the party
Girls carrying their shoes down in the lobby
Candle wax and Polaroids on the hardwood floor
You and me forevermore

Don't read the last page
But I stay when it's hard, or it's wrong
Or we're making mistakes
I want your midnights
But I'll be cleaning up bottles with you on New Year's Day

Hold on to the memories, they will hold on to you
Hold on to the memories, they will hold on to you
Hold on to the memories, they will hold on to you
And I will hold on to you

Please don't ever become a stranger
Whose laugh I could recognize anywhere
Please don't ever become a stranger
Whose laugh I could recognize anywhere

    [Verse 1]
    There's glitter on the floor after the party
    Girls carrying their shoes down in the lobby
    Candle wax and Polaroids on the hardwood floor
    You and me from the night before, but

    [Chorus]
    Don’t read the last page
    But I stay when you're lost, and I'm scared
    And you’re turning away
    I want your midnights
    But I'll be cleaning up bottles with you on New Year's Day

    [Verse 2]
    You squeeze my hand three times in the back of the taxi
    I can tell that it's gonna be a long road
    I'll be there if you're the toast of the town, babe
    Or if you strike out and you're crawling home

    [Chorus]
    Don't read the last page
    But I stay when it’s hard, or it’s wrong
    Or we're making mistakes
    I want your midnights
    But I’ll be cleaning up bottles with you on New Year's Day

    [Post-Chorus]
    Hold on to the memories, they will hold on to you
    Hold on to the memories, they will hold on to you
    Hold on to the memories, they will hold on to you
    And I will hold on to you

    [Bridge]
    Please don't ever become a stranger
    Whose laugh I could recognize anywhere
    Please don't ever become a stranger
    Whose laugh I could recognize anywhere

    [Verse 3]
    There’s glitter on the floor after the party
    Girls carrying their shoes down in the lobby
    Candle wax and Polaroids on the hardwood floor
    You and me forevermore

    [Chorus]
    Don't read the last page
    But I stay when it's hard, or it's wrong
    Or we're making mistakes
    I want your midnights
    But I'll be cleaning up bottles with you on New Year's Day

    [Post-Chorus]
    Hold on to the memories, they will hold on to you
    Hold on to the memories, they will hold on to you
    Hold on to the memories, they will hold on to you
    And I will hold on to you

    [Outro]
    Please don't ever become a stranger
    (To the memories, they will hold on to you)
    Whose laugh I could recognize anywhere
    (Hold on to the memories, they will hold on to you)
    Please don't ever become a stranger
    (Hold on to the memories, they will hold on to you)
    Whose laugh I could recognize anywhere
    (I will hold on to you)
