Lyric
New Years Day Evening we talked until morning We met like two cans on a string That's when you made me a fine resolution But I didn't get you anything Soon after Valentine's from LA to Tucson You gave me your keys in the spring You gave me some credit and doubt's costly benefit But I didn't get you anything Sometime next Christmas I knelt on a footbridge Holding a secondhand ring You gave me your hand and compared to this dowry I didn't get you anything One New Years Eve we made plans for tomorrow I may have bought you a drink You gave me a home, some dogs and a driveway All the right things I had wrong You gave me a place for my empties and a place to belong Please take my life, wasn't using it anyway 'cause I didn't get you anything
