Maybe next year You will sing for me a mountain With a voice that is a window To the river deep inside Maybe next year You will love me as a hero And i will fly across Our geographical divide Time, time is a fickle friend A friend we took for granted In the twilight of our hour All things come to an end Maybe next year, maybe next year Cause you said you'd always love me And you said we'd be okay So i took the job in california A thousand miles away Regret is such a bastard And there's nothing you can do Maybe next year i'll come home to you I remember you and me Lying side by side Staring wide-eyed at the sky I can see the moment That you took me by the hand Smiled at me and said Let's never leave this land Repeat chorus thing
