The winter sun is sinking fast
I hold onto a day that cannot last
And the park is now empty except for one glove
I thought this would be our year my love
The ice is forming on the cars
It's treacherous wherever you are
And the geese fly south from high above
I thought this would be our year my love
They say things might be better soon
I'm drinking in the afternoon
Because I haven't the strength when push comes to shove
And I thought this would be our year my love
I remember the wish that you made
I remember the melody played
And how no one recalls the last verse to that song
I made you a promise turns out I was wrong
As the night draws close I light the fire
There's an Angel walking on the wire
I gave it my best but it wasn't enough
Maybe next year will be our year
Next year will be our year
Next year will be our year my love
