Aaron Dessner - Long Live New Years Day The Manuscript Live From The Eras Tour In Vancouver Lyrics

[Verse 1: Long Live (Taylor's Version)]
I said, "Remember this moment"
In the back of my mind
The time we stood with our shaking hands
The crowds in stands went wild
We were the kings and the queens
And they read off our names
It was the end of an era
But the start of an age
You held your head like a hero
On a history book page

[Chorus: Long Live (Taylor's Version)]
Now I'm screaming "Long live the walls we crashed through"
How the kingdom lights shined just for me and you
I was screaming, "Long live all the magic we made"
And bring on all the pretenders
One day, we will be remembered

[Verse 1: New Year's Day]
There's glitter on the floor after the party
Girls carryin' their shoes down in the lobby
Candle wax and Polaroids on the hardwood floor
You and me from the night before, but

[Chorus: New Year's Day]
Don't read the last page
But I stay when you're lost and I'm scared and you're turnin' away
I want your midnights
But I'll be cleanin' up bottles with you on New Year's Day
[Bridge: The Manuscript]
And the years passed like scenes of a show
The professor said to write what you know
Lookin' backwards might be the only way to move forward
Then the actors were hitting their marks
And the slow dance was alight with the sparks
And the tears fell in synchronicity with the score
And at last, she knew what the agony had been for

[Bridge: Long Live (Taylor's Version)]
Hold on to spinning around
Confetti falls to the ground
May these memories break our fall

[Bridge: New Year's Day]
Please, don't ever become a stranger
Whose laugh I could recognize anywhere
Please, don't ever become a stranger
Whose laugh I could recognize anywhere
And hold on to the memories, they will hold on to you
Hold on to the memories, they will hold on to you
Hold on to the memories, they will hold on to you

[Chorus: Long Live (Taylor's Version)]
Long live the walls we crashed through
How the kingdom lights shined for me and you
Long, long live all the magic we made
And bring on all the pretenders
'Cos one day, we will be remembered
[Outro: The Manuscript]
The only thing that's left is the manuscript
One last souvenir from my trip to your shores
Now and then, I reread the manuscript
But the story isn't mine anymore
