I'm usually away for New Year and have a long think and let it all out... This song was born in Zanzibar four years ago and has travelled with me since, I finally felt like finishing it this year.
Played to you a little bit jet-lagged and on the guitar that travels with me around the world :)
Dig, and Happy New Year,
Peace,

Venus sent her lights to play
With a smiling moon upon the bay
Wishing this year's blues away
Sitting here on New Year's day
A loving girl inside my arms
Soothing me with her sweet charms
Wishing this years blues away
Sitting here on New Year's day
This year took my friend away
This year broke my heart again
This year made me lose my way
Then it picked me up again
This year crushed the one I love
Made me curse the skies above
Now I'll sing my blues away
Sitting here on New Year's Day
Next year's gift is this blank page
A pencil and my weary age
An optimist and bitter sage
Sitting here on New Year's Day
Now it's time to feel the sand
Touch the sea and walk this land
Hoping all these blues will fade
Sitting here on New Year's Day
Venus sent her lights to play
With a smiling moon upon the bay
Wishing this year's blues away
Sitting here on New Year's day
A loving girl inside my arms
Soothing me with her sweet charms
Washing this years blues away
Sitting here on New Year's day
Absolutely love it! Happy new year!!!manila
