Lyrics

That Year

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I must have been sleeping

I must have been drinking

I haven't been dreaming about you for years

There was a sharp turn

And a sunburn

I was too cool for high school

That year

That year

It must have have been new years

No one invited you

It took things too far

But I missed you and your antics

You were lonesome and blue-eyed

And so special to us

You should have taken a long break

Instead of a long drop from a high place

Ten years I never spoke your name

Now it feels good to say it

You're my friend again

Said he forgave you

I said I hated you

He was the bigger man

I was sixteen

All the innocense it took for

You to finally make a year book

That year

That year

You could have taken some time away

Instead of a long drop

Instead of a leap of faith

Ten years I never spoke your name

Now it feels good to say that

You're my friend again

You're my friend again

I was angry

I was a baptist

I was a daughter

I was wrong
