New Resolution
Azure Ray Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Heavy eyes hold position
You were right on time
It was a lucky prediction
Move on
Move on
It's like the clock is pacing
And our hearts are racing
Move on move on
No there's nothing changing
Don't undermine
My new resolution
Just to find
A different light a new direction
Move on move on
Now the records skipping
I won't forget
I won't forget the way you said
Move on
Move on
There's no point in waiting
The song βNew Resolutionβ by Azure Ray some possible interpretations. It could be about moving on from a bad relationship or situation. The first stanza could be interpreted as someone who is tired and has been waiting for something or someone for a long time. When that person finally shows up, it feels like it was all worth it, but deep down, they know it was just a lucky prediction. The second stanza could be interpreted as the clock signaling the start of something new, and itβs causing their hearts to race, but thereβs nothing changing. The chorus emphasizes βMove on, move onβ which could serve as a call to action to not get stuck in the past.
The line, βMy new resolution just to find a different light, a new directionβ seems to be the main idea behind the song. It suggests that we should not be afraid to move forward and try something new. The last stanza mentions a record skipping, which could symbolize that the past keeps repeating itself. However, the singer will not forget the message to move on and not waste time waiting for someone or something that may never come.

Follow blind
Continue without a clear direction
Heavy eyes hold position
Feeling stuck in place and unable to move on
You were right on time
Things happened as they were meant to at the precise moment
It was a lucky prediction
Outcome turned out to be favorable despite the uncertain beginning
Move on
Apply effort to progress and not stay in the current state
It's like the clock is pacing
The passage of time feels slow against the desire to move forward faster
The break of dawn
The start of a new day or a new chapter in life
And our hearts are racing
Feeling anxious or excited about the unknown future
No there's nothing changing
The situation remains the same
Don't undermine
Don't underestimate or undervalue
My new resolution
A commitment to a new and different way of approaching things
Just to find
Focusing on discovering something new or previously undiscovered
A different light a new direction
A fresh perspective or way of doing things
Now the records skipping
The slight imperfections along the way towards change
I won't forget
I'll take the lessons learned on this journey with me
The way you said
The manner expressed in sharing advice or support
There's no point in waiting
There's nothing to gain by delaying progress or resisting change

When I was a grad student at UGA 20 years ago, one of these ladies was my next door neighbor at an apartment complex off Baxter Street in Athens. I can't remember which one now. She had kind of a blonde bob hairdo at that time as I recall. I remember her telling me she was from Alabama (like me) and about her band Little Red Rocket. I never forgot that name. I randomly thought of that band today, searched Youtube and learned they're the same women in Azure Ray. Glad to see they've done well. Sure wish I could remember which one was my neighbor now. So long ago. Funny where random thoughts can lead you sometimes.

Sometimes I really feel like I would be good listening to nothing but records from Saddle Creek. Seriously, this is fantastic.

When the PSP was new, I think this was the only and first music video you could download to play in its video player. Love it

Interesting video. The Azure Ray girls are beautiful, in a natural way. This is one of their very best songs from the amazing Hold On Love album.
