Lyrics

Next Year

[Verse 1]

Just when the flames have settled

The second fire rises

Oh, how I love my life

But hate these dark surprises

Just when the pain has settled

You face another crisis

Oh, how I love my life

But hate these dark surprises

[Pre-Chorus 1]

It's time we face the sun

Breathe and start to run

Putting pressure on my lungs

And you feel that pressure

[Chorus]

Never fear, the sunset's near

Bring us here and we're happy till next year

You and me, our mind runs free

Bring us here and we're happy till next year

All, all we need is, all, all we need is

All, all we need is, all, all we need is

All we need is generation

Bring us here and we're happy till next year

[Verse 2]

Just when your name feels special

They come in different guises

Oh, how I love my life

But hate these dark surprises

You feel the angels bless you

Their soft touch energises

Oh, how I love my life

But hate these dark surprises

[Pre-Chorus 2]

It's time we face the sun

No more childish fun

It's a special kind of love

And you feel so special

[Chorus]

[Bridge]

If a habit needs kicking, won't rest for the wicked

Don't you know?

Ain't got a problem with living, cause I live monolithic

Don't you know?

Don't you know?

Don't you know?

Don't you know?

Don't you know?

[Chorus]

[Outro]

Happy till next year

Happy till next year

Happy till next year, happy till next year

Happy till next year
