Last year today seemed a long way away And ahead of me A new face and street, people who meet you Instead of me They bring you, they take you They own you, they make you Last year today you turn and you say Here's a dream for me You close your eyes, the moon starts to rise And you scream for me
I calm you, I'm with you What did they ever give you Memories in future tense Memories don't make much sense Last year today a radio plays Such a simple song The music surreal and you almost could feel That there's nothing wrong They bought you, they sold you And all the things they told you
