A Year Ago
(lyrics by Andy Brettell)
a year ago we laughed and played
rejoicing in the love we made
but things too perfect cannot last
and happiness becomes the past
for us the dreams were running low
you'd leave me but I didn't know
a year ago I came alive
you made me care, helped me survive
but fate and time perform strange tricks
and tears with laughter quickly mix
I hoped that with your love I'd grow
you'd leave me but I didn't know
a year ago I had a chance
to join the revellers in the dance
but now the days don't have a tune
and with lost spirits I commune
and back to yesterday I go
you've left me, but I still don't know . . .
