WUuuu~ WUuuu~ Midnight rests gently on the quiet block, Snow lining every mailbox and fence. Your deep voice breaks the stillness, Sha-ba-doo, sha-ba-dee, carried by the cold air. We pass beneath soft halos of streetlight, Each step a tiny echo of winter. Loo-da-lay, loo-da-low — you test a melody, Smiling shyly when I turn to listen. Almost lovers, brushing close in silence, Afraid of what might happen if we speak. Winter wraps the neighborhood in calm, Leaving only our breath to disturb it. Your voice drifts warm through the icy dark, A rhythm steady as the quiet drums inside me. Happy New Year — omedetou, almost mine. The winter night feels bright beside you. Sha-ba-doo, sha-ba-dee, filling the empty street, A soft Latin sway under the snowy sky. Maybe the new year will open what we hide. Loo-da-lay… loo-da-low… fading with the falling snow, Our hearts walking a little closer than before.
