In Another Year

(album: Drunk On A Flight - 2023)

The same old church bells ring to wake me up
The same old walls around my coffee cup
You come downstairs and switch the TV on
Before I know it another day has gone

The same old journey to the corner shop
The same old man who drops the paper off
Just Bill Murray on Groundhog Day
Except I'm watching all the seasons change

I, I know you've seen it all
Every mountain top, and penny drop and waterfall
Oh I, I wanna jump a cliff
Wanna swim across and go get lost in the world's ibis
But Then I get the fear
I'm still getting out of here
Just in another year

I saw some photos in a magazine
Of all the places I have never been
The only photo that we have of us
Is on the mantelpiece gathering dust

Oh I, I know you've seen it all
Every mountain top, and penny drop and waterfall
And I, I wanna feel alive
I've got bones to break, mistakes to make before I die
So let me make it clear
I'm still getting out of here
Just in another year

I, I'm gonna see it all
Every mountain top, and penny drop and waterfall
And I, I'm more than terrified
To not have you to show me to the world outside
I Got my ticket out of here, I gotta disappear
I'll see you in a year
