Resolutions Unraveled: Love's Dance in New Beginnings
Lyrics
The party's only began, but they don't know
The party has just begun, but others are unaware.
Wish we could say we're just friends, but that's not how this goes
Expressing a desire for a deeper connection beyond friendship.
Do I dare touch your hand
Contemplating a physical connection by touching hands.
Or do you have different plans
Wondering about the other person's intentions or plans.
We said this was over, but now I'm reading the same page
Despite claiming closure, there's a sense of unresolved emotions.
You know I got my closure, so why are things still the same
Questioning why things haven't changed despite closure.
It's only a matter of time
Anticipating a future moment when their eyes will meet.
Before you're eyes meet mine
Expecting a connection to deepen over time.
Just like that, we fall back into our usual ways
Reverting to familiar behaviors in the relationship.
More than friends, but something we're too afraid to name
Acknowledging a relationship beyond friendship but avoiding labels.
You make all these promises, but they feel like illusions
Doubting the sincerity of promises, feeling like illusions.
Don't be stupid, no one follows their new year's resolutions
Suggesting that people often fail to follow New Year's resolutions.
Everyone around us, dancing so innocently
Observing others dancing innocently around them.
Where do you place your trust, it's happening so suddenly
Reflecting on the suddenness of trusting someone.
Do I dare bring it up
Considering bringing up a sensitive topic.
So we can discuss and pretend that it's all fine
Wishing to discuss issues while pretending everything is fine.
Your hand meets mine
Physical contact between hands.
A look in your eyes
Noticing a significant look in the other person's eyes.
We're blurring the lines
Blurring the lines between friendship and something more.
But I don't mind
Accepting the blurred lines without objections.
Just like that, we fall back into our usual ways
Repeating the pattern of falling into familiar ways.
More than friends, but something we're too afraid to name
Acknowledging a connection beyond friendship without defining it.
You make all these promises, but they feel like illusions
Expressing doubt about the sincerity of promises made.
Don't be stupid, no one follows their new year's resolutions
Reiterating the difficulty in sticking to New Year's resolutions.
It's familiar, we work in more ways than one
Noting the familiarity and compatibility in the relationship.
Go figure, they'll say it's just young love
Expecting others to dismiss it as young love.
You make all these promises, but they feel like illusions
Repeating the skepticism about promised changes.
Don't be stupid, no one follows their new year's resolutions
Emphasizing the challenge of following New Year's resolutions.
We both decided we'd be better as friends
Deciding to be friends but struggling to maintain that decision.
And yet we still come back here
Returning to a familiar situation despite deciding to be friends.
We both decided we'd be better as friends
Repeating the struggle to remain friends, especially in heated moments.
In the heat of the moment it's clear
Recognizing the clarity of the connection in intense moments.
The lights, the glances, the passing notes
Listing elements that contribute to the complexity of the relationship.
What else can I say, you're my home
Acknowledging the other person as a source of comfort.
It's right, give it a chance, you're good to go (3, 2, 1)
Encouraging taking a chance in the relationship.
When the countdown ends who ends up close
Referencing a countdown and the uncertainty of who ends up close.
Just like that, we fall back into our usual ways
Repeating the pattern of falling back into familiar ways.
More than friends, but somewhere we like to place our pain
Acknowledging a connection beyond friendship as a source of pain.
You make all these promises, but they feel like illusions
Expressing doubt about the sincerity of promises, feeling like illusions.
Don't be stupid, no one follows their new year's resolutions
Reiterating the challenge of following New Year's resolutions.
