There Goes Another Year

Oh, there goes another year
You are there and I am here
As we watch it fade away
What seemed so certain
In the darkness of December
As the fire turned from spark to ember
These are things I will remember
Now Christmas time is here
There goes another year
This is how it’s gonna be
One for you and one for me
As we see it slip away now
Heaven help us
In the darkness of December
As the fire turns from spark to ember
These are things we will remember
Now Christmas time is here
There goes another year
What we say but do not mean
Every word and in-between
For every pothole in this town
There is someone falling down
