Lyrics
Another Year
1.
You know I won't forget you
how you battled death
the last hours with you
you drew your final breath
Your name is mentioned many times
then suddenly I realize:
when sharing memories - you walk by
... into another year
2.
Days are long and endless
- wrapped in many tears -
No answer to my questions
only hurt and fear
I hear you in the wildest wind
your laughter over & over again
I feel you in the pouring rain
......it's been another year.
Chorus
Not a sound - not a move
glowing in the distance
Time, they say, heals all my wounds
but I'm aware of ....my existence!
3.
Then the winter left me
melting ice away
loneliness within me
since you left that day.
All is said - all is done
half the battle has been won
And everything under the sun
.... longs for another year.
