lyrics

The clock is ticking I'm running out of time
And memories come in rollin in this light
Down the block I hear a pretty song
The mariachi trumpets play tonight

And I'm not worried
I'll start the New Year with New York

No time for resolutions I'm not quitting next year
Just a few minutes more till it falls and I have no fear
And victory I can taste it from here
And the trumpets they bring they bring in the new year

And I'm not worried
I'll spend the New Year with New York

I was lost when I got here I came in the rain
And I suddenly found all the answers they became unchained
Yeah you took me in and you gave me the strength
To turn one more corner and be done with the pain

And I'm not worried
I'm spending New Year with New York

And in minutes a new year will have begun
Like a king on his throne
New York
You've been good to your adopted son
And the serpentines in seconds will be thrown
So fill up a glass light a sparkler and bring the new year home

And I'm not worried
I'll spend the New Year with New York

A man who most likely grew up listening to the King from his hometown of Paris, and dreaming of the 'Donna' of Ritchie Valens' genius, Higbee has resurrected the spirit of Nashville for New York in his latest LP 'Secret Life.'
