Bombs bursting in air Hazy from rocket's red glare All on your own On your way anywhere Love, just in case you've not heard It's been run ragged, a ghost of a word But hope kind of stuck With any luck Maybe next summer, maybe by fall Well, if not then, I am sure you'll recall That our gloomy December will brighten by May You're on your way Taking that drink to the end of the line Sometimes you think it's a faulty design And wonder when And hope until then Maybe next summer, maybe by fall Well, if not then, I am sure you'll recall That our gloomy December will brighten by May You're on your way So maybe take him off you Feel all the love around here But take it from me eventually Maybe next summer, maybe by fall Well, if not then, I am sure you'll recall That our gloomy December will brighten by May You're on your way
