When you're left behind Though your hearts been true An inconvenient memorywell baby that's you You can hang your head You can lose your pride Then surrender everything And run away and hide But I say remember that time can heal your wounds And nobody knows what tomorrow brings So don't give in too soon Cause this time next year You could be high and flyin Leavin behind your fears Clouds could have silver linings This time next year And when he sleeps at night Does he see your face Does he wonder why he put Someone in your place And though you feel the pain So betrayed by lies There's so much that you can gain If you just realize That each day that's wasted You know will not return And no one knows what tomorrow brings It just might be your turn Cause this time next year You could be high and flyin Leavin behind your tears There'll be no need for cryin This time next year
