You're a senior double major 
You got such big ideas 
We were searching for a savior 
To guide us through those restless years 

If only I could steal you away 
From those paths we were led astray 
I would take back all those things I said 
That new year's day 
If only I could make you see 
That all those dreams belonged to me 
I'd take back all those things I said 
That new year's day 

The October autumn twilight 
The chilling of our breath 
I had dreams I've found redemption 
And a past full of regret 
And the clouds on the horizon 
Look like a thousand paper cranes 
And I heard your voice 
But couldn't scream your name 

If only I could steal you away 
From those paths were led astray 
I would take back all those things I said 
That new year's day 
If only I could make you see 
That all those dreams belonged to me 
I'd take back all those things I said 
That new year's day 

So let's drink to forgiveness 
Let's drink for regret 
Let's drink to the ones we've loved and lost 
Let us never forget 
The mannequin shields her glowing eyes 
We'll all too human, yeah 
We're always searching on 
Until that gift of isolation has been won 

If only I could steal you away 
From those paths were led astray 
I would take back all those things I said 
That new year's day 
If only I could make you see 
That all those dreams belonged to me 
I'm haunting them the way you know you're haunting me 
If only I could steal you away 
From those paths were led astray 
I would take back all those things I said 
That new year's day 
That new year's day
