A Year Anecdote
It’s been a Jan-u-weary
of a good time of a year
I think we’re ready to relax;
it’s time to have good ‘cheers’!
Feb-ru-where you at?
I ain’t seen you since last year.
I’m Marching on to April, yeah
I’m shaking off my fears
‘May I be your burning light?’
I said to her that June.
‘As long as Ju-lie right next to my side
you’re the sun and I’m the moon’
Au-gust of wind came on in
and halted summer in its tracks;
I was falling real too fast
she was not there to have my back.
I was lost in the world too far this time;
there was no worser year...
ex-Sept embers of our endeavors
I’d soon find out had persevered
Drunk out with my buddies
I was standing at your door
Your door knows I had knOct-ober-time
until I was down on the floor
You let me in we had some gin
No-ember left untouched within
and all that was Dec-m-embered
had started over anew again
Now it’s New Year’s Eve
and I can’t believe
that we have grown beyond our fears
‘April will you be my light?’
She said yes!
‘What a hell of a year!’
