If you were here I'd kneel for you
A thousand kisses deep
The autumn moved across your skin
Got something in my eye
A light that doesn't need to live
And doesn't need to die
A riddle in the book of love
Obscure and obsolete
To witness tear and time and blood
A thousand kisses deep
And I'm still working with the wine
Still dancing cheek to cheek
The band is playing Auld Lang Syne
But the heart will not retreat
I ran with Dez, I sang with Ray
I never had their sweep
“Auld Lang Syne”  is a Scottish poem by Robert Burns in 1788, set to a traditional folk song. In the English-speaking world, it’s traditionally sung to say goodbye to the old year when midnight strikes on New Year’s Eve.
