Lyrics for Song: New Year's Prayer
Lyrics for Album: Sketches for My Sweetheart the Drunk [1997]
oooooo.
fall in light, fall in light.
fall in light, fall in light.
feel no shame for what you are (X 5)
as you now are in your heart
fall in light
feel no shame for what you are
feel no shame for what you are
feel it as a waterfall
fall in light, ooh.
fall in light, fall in light,
fall in light, ooh.
fall in light, fall in light fall in light,
grow in light.
stand absolved behind your electric chair, dancing.
stand absolved behind your electric chair, dancing.
past the sound within the sound.
past the voice within the voice.
ah. ah. ah.
leave your office, run past your funeral,
leave your home, car , leave your pulpit.
join us in the streets where we
join us in the streets where we don't belong..
don't belong.
you and the stars throwing light.
oooooo (repeat) fall, fall.
oooooo fall in, fall in light.
fall in light, ooo.
fall in light, fall in light
fall in light. grow in light.

New Year's Prayer
Jeff Buckley's "New Year's Prayer" stands as a haunting centerpiece on the 1997 album *Sketches for My Sweetheart the Drunk*. Recorded during the final months of his life, the track exemplifies his signature blend of folk, blues, and soulful rock, characterized by his ethereal vocal delivery and intricate guitar work. The song reflects the introspective and sometimes melancholic tone that permeates Buckley's later recordings, capturing a moment of spiritual yearning before his untimely death. It remains a staple of his discography, often cited for its emotional depth and its ability to transcend genre boundaries, cementing his legacy as a profound influence on alternative and indie music. |
