There's a new year upon me
I'm begging for some reform
There's an obvious reflection
That I've been running from
Sometime early last summer
I started holding my ears
And covering up my eyes
I couldn't speak through my fears
Oh take me, oh take me,
I said to the man I adored
Take me, oh take me
'Cause I am barely me anymore
And, oh, I pray that
It never comes to this again
Oh, this time next year
I'll be so much clearer and closer
To the ones I love
I'll be everything to me
And it will change how I see
Everything, everything
This time next year
Well, there are songs that you've written
And there are lines of my own
That tell all the story
Of our love and our wars
There's a dream that began us
The one that took us by surprise
And now that dream is hidden
In the tears from our eyes
Oh take me, oh take me,
I said to the man I adored
Take me, oh, take me
'Cause I am barely anymore
And, oh, I pray that
It never comes to this again
Oh, this time next year
I'll be so much clearer and closer
To the ones I love
I'll be everything to me
And it will change how I see
Everything, oh, everything
This time next year
Oh hand me my crown
And I'll put it on
Oh hand me my crown
And I'll put it on
And oh I pray that
It never comes to this again
Oh this time next year
I'll be so much clearer and closer
To the ones I love
I'll be everything to me
And it will change how I see
Oh, everything
Oh, everything
This time next year
