Same Time Next Year?

(album: Christmas - 2017)

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

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

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

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

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 again)
