v1:
Was it the worst year?
Probably so, but who's counting
It all seems crystal clear
and I think we should talk about it... a little more
ch:
Did we learn? Did we grow?
I doubt it, but who knows
We could all come out fine, I suppose
-----
Did we love? Did we care?
Were we even aware?
Of the pain that seemed to be everywhere
v2:
Will we get better?
Probably not, but I'm hopeful
Sooner than later
Hear me out, here's my proposal... such as it is
ch:
I tried to be strong
I wrote a couple of decent songs
But I'm not sure that will help us get along
-----
We've got to learn to lose our pride
Learn to see the other side
But it's no fun to go along for that ride
-- some sort of solo --
v3:
so... happy new year
What will we do when the change comes?
The things we hold so dear
The sacred & the profane ones... it's all we've got
ch:
Will we lay down our guns?
Should we try to have some fun?
Can we hang up our shoes, when at last the race is run?
