We missed the last train And laughed the hardest When we lost our way There in the doorframe It was the first time I felt you walk away You wore the black dress I tried my hardest Not to give it away Just like the first time Those diamond in your eyes They shone the same And there we stood on New Year's Eve With confetti flying through the air Was just the way I hoped it'd be But I've never been less prepared That when the apple fell You'd be there You wore the white dress I tried my hardest not to look away Just like the first time But every step you took Felt like a day And there we stood on New Year's Eve With my fingers running through your hair (On New Year's Eve) Was just the way I hoped it'd be And I've never been more prepared (On New Year's Eve) That when the morning came You'd be there And there we stood on New Year's Eve With confetti flying through the air (On New Year's Eve) Was just the way I hoped it'd be And I've never been less prepared (On New Year's Eve) That when the apple fell You'd be there (You'd be there) That when the apple fell You'd be there
