Same Time Next Year?

[Verse 1]

It's the curse of a season, well versed in despair

Each year I come back home alone to find you there

In the smoking garden, the years fall like snow

You had my hungover heart tied up in a bow

[Chorus]

And as I gazed into your eyes

On that cold December night

I almost saw the other life we promised to live

But never did

[Verse 2]

Your dad told me you’re married

Mum said you're thinking kids

I'm still the mess I was in 2006

I’ve just got lines around my eyes to prove I've lived

[Chorus]

And as I gazed into your eyes

On that cold December night

I almost saw the other life we promised to live

Oh, we never did

[Outro]

All your friends sing songs in silence

(When the morning comes)

You make excuses and you say it's time to think

(On this Christmas Day)

You look so pretty in the sack, oh Lord

(I'm gonna go back home and)

We're getting older and this song is about her

(Resume the year)
