New Year
A Tapestry of Promises: Beach House's New Year Revelations
Lyrics
All I wanted comes in colors
All the desires I had are vibrant and diverse.
Vanish everyday
These desires disappear or change regularly.
I'll keep these promises, these promises
I will uphold the commitments and assurances I made.
Stranger things will come before you
Unusual or unexpected events will precede your experiences.
Always out of the way
Always happening in an unconventional or unpredictable manner.
We keep these promises, these promises
We will continue to honor these commitments and assurances.
Can you call it?
Can you name or identify it?
See it coming
Anticipate or foresee it.
Just enough to tell a story
Just enough information to narrate a tale.
'Bout a portrait of a young girl
About a depiction of a young girl.
Waiting for a new year
Waiting for the arrival of a new year.
All you ever wanted
Everything you ever desired.
Is it getting away?
Is it slipping away or becoming unattainable?
Visions of a feeling
Imaginations of an emotion or sensation.
The footsteps at bay
The approaching sounds kept at a distance.
You were getting stronger
You were becoming more resilient or powerful.
Memories again
Recollections resurface.
Now you're open wider
Now you are more receptive or open.
It's better this way
It's preferable in this manner.
All I wanted comes in colors
All the desires I had are vibrant and diverse.
Vanish everyday
These desires disappear or change regularly.
I'll keep these promises, these promises
I will uphold the commitments and assurances I made.
Stranger things will come before you
Unusual or unexpected events will precede your experiences.
Always out of the way
Always happening in an unconventional or unpredictable manner.
We keep these promises, these promises
We will continue to honor these commitments and assurances.
Won't you write a letter
Would you please compose a written message?
On the page
On the sheet or document.
In your own way
In your unique or personal manner.
Write it in a letter
Express it in a written message.
On the page
On the sheet or document.
It's your own way
Express it in your unique or personal manner.
You were getting wiser
You were becoming more knowledgeable or discerning.
It's better this way
It's preferable in this manner.
Faces in the mirror
Images reflected in the looking glass.
Memories again
Recollections resurface.
Now look to a feeling
Now focus on an emotion or sensation.
It's lighter than breath
It's lighter than breath.
All you ever wanted
Everything you ever desired.
Is it getting away?
Is it slipping away or becoming unattainable?
Can you call it?
Can you name or identify it?
See it coming
Anticipate or foresee it.
Just enough to tell a story
Just enough information to narrate a tale.
'Bout a portrait of a young girl
About a depiction of a young girl.
Waiting for the ending of an era
Waiting for the conclusion of an era.
Can you call it?
Can you name or identify it?
See it coming
Anticipate or foresee it.
Just enough to tell a story
Just enough information to narrate a tale.
'Bout a portrait of a young girl
About a depiction of a young girl.
Waiting for the new year
Waiting for the arrival of a new year.
