Lyrics

THIS TIME NEXT YEAR
© by Mike Greenly & Paul Guzzone

Verse: I remember how you broke the news
and how you broke my heart
You took me to that restaurant
And tore my world apart

The waiter asked me how I was,
I was smilin? like a fool
Holdin back the tears
Trying to be cool

Since that awful night
I?ve done an awful lot of cryin?
One thing keeps me goin?
One thing keeps me tryin?

CHORUS: This time next year
I?ll be over you
I know that I will be myself again
No more looking back

This time next year
Things will finally be alright
I won?t be missing you
lyin? next to me at night

My time will come
Another chance
I?m sure
This time next year







Verse: You told me you?d found someone
I guess nothing?s never-ending
You said the time had come for us
that you were through pretending

You packed your bags in silence
Closed the door and you were gone
And for the longest time I wondered
How I could go on

Now I?m all cried out
Tired of lookin? in the mirror
I finally feel some hope again
And things are so much clearer

CHORUS: This time next year
I?ll be over you
I know that I will be myself again
No more looking back

This time next year
I will finally get it right
I?ll have someone better
lyin? next to me at night

Coda: My time will come
Another chance
I?m sure
This time next year
This time next year
