[Verse 1: Michael Carreon]
January one again
We're bringing in the new year
But I'm not kissing anyone this time
Ribbons and balloons again
I don't know what to do here
But drinking makes it easier to smile

[Chorus: Michael Carreon]
Thinking of all the things we used to do
All those winter mornings and December nights
Remembering the way you used to
Countdown to one with that look in your eyes
Our hearts beating like fireworks
Every first is not the same without you here
So today I fake a "Happy New Year"

[Verse 2: Sarah Kang]
Told myself I won't regret
But it's too late to return to
Back to when I thought you were mine
So I'll turn over the hourglass
And hope for something brand new
But let me reminisce one last time

[Chorus: Michael Carreon & Sarah Kang]
Thinking of all the things we used to do
All those winter mornings and December nights
Remembering the way you used to
Countdown to one with that look in your eyes
Our hearts beating like fireworks
Every first is not the same without you here
So today I fake a "Happy New Year"
[Bridge: Michael Carreon, Sarah Kang, both
It will always you
But I know you've given up
Whatever you do don't call me
'Cause I just might pick it up
And they're yelling out the numbers now
And I can't help but wonder how you are
From afar

[Chorus: Michael Carreon, both]
Thinking of all the things we used to do
All those winter mornings and December nights
Remembering the way you used to
Countdown to one with that look in your eyes
Our hearts beating like fireworks
Every first is not the same without you here
So today I fake a "Happy New Year"
