The White Buffalo - This Year lyrics

Another year older, it came and went Blood and the tears and the money spent The new year's here with the same old cast We dance and we drink like it may be our last Buzzin' waitin' for the countdown to come Feels like slow motion from ten to one A kiss and the fireworks light the sky Falling apart over Auld Lang Syne Let's focus on this night alone Just hope that we'd make it home alive The Earth it turns, spring rushes in Days get longer and nights go thin Mother wakes up a little brighter than before Cold melts away and the gardens grow The air is crisp and fields are sweet Gra** and the daffodils tickling our feet Flowers they bloom and the birds they sing Fill up the day with the songs they bring And I don't feel much like singing at all Seasons change but I don't change at all Well I've done wrong, well I've done right, that's clear Maybe I'll get better, maybe I'll be different, this year Ooh, here comes summer, well it's comin' in hot No shirt, no school, give it all you got The sun, it calls so let's go outside Toastin' our drinks in the warm sunshine The asphalt smoulders in the city streets You better run fast or you're gonna burn your feet Splashin' and yellin' the cannonball Enough love and laughter for one and all Oh the future's, future's looking bright I think that I might get it right after all Moody autumn blows in off a summer wind Leaves fall off of the trees, never see them again Like embers they float into the streets Golden and red dance repeat Well it's close of the curtains, let's stay inside No flower, no fruit and the lawns all die Well how could it all fall apart so fast And why would I think it would ever last? When everything is dying, well, how can I feel alive? Oh, life is short, well all good days disappear Maybe I've been lost, maybe I'll get found, this year Well the winter and the cold come storming in Kicks down the door and your blood runs thin Day's too short and the night's too long Carolers came, I can't sing along Oh money's all gone, don't know where it went Christmas ain't easy when you can't pay the rent And the lights go out to a silent night And all you can do is just stay in the fight And I just can't see the wrong, and I just can't see the right Oh, life is hard, I've been fighting, a failure Maybe I've been lost, don't think I'll get found, this year Well I've done wrong, well I've done right, that's clear But maybe I'll get better, maybe I'll be different, next year
