This Will Be the Year lyrics

Toast to me, hold up my glass, to all mistakes i've made

Good intentions washed away, as soon as spring time came

I danced a summer, fell an autumn, another candle blown

Now winter's come around again, and back where i began

And even though you heard it all, i know you don't believe

Let me keep the last thing left for me

This will be the year, the year

The year i learn to take some time, to stop and breathe it in

To keep a promise to myself, to finish what i begin

Bad habits stop, no more regrets, a step out of the red

Open arms and an open heart to all that lies ahead

And even though you've heard it all, and i know you don't believe

Let me keep the last thing left for me

This will be the year, the year

My faith carries me, i'll keep holding on

And i'll face finally, what i've been doing wrong

I know you don't believe, but just for me, can't you pretend?

That you'll never ever hear me say these words again

I know this time i won't be late, this time i will arrive

Save my tears, save my doubts, this time i will try

I know i can be better, i promise i'll be strong

I'll make them see what i had been, seeing all alone

I know you've heard it all before, and i know you don't believe

But let me keep the last thing left for me

This will be the year, the year
