It′s been a difficult year

Slack time gone wasted

It's just been a difficult yearAnd I wish we′d been together to face it

Some days it seems okay

Got some good friends around me

But I'm still scared of losing my head

I guess is just something selfish about me

A dozen months go by

As you wait for a sign

For the sky to boil

Above a sea of wine

For some road to grow

Before your eyes

For some act of God

To set you right

I've had a little bad luck

Well, it′s mostly my own making

I thought I had it all sewn up

But I was so badly mistaken

A dozen months go by

As you wait for a sign

For the sky to boil

Above a sea of wine

For some road to grow

Before your eyes

For some guiding star

To shine her light

Is it too late to find someone to

Shield you when your nerves are all?

Just say it, sing it like you mean it

I need you now and forevermore

Is it too late to find someone to

Shield you when your nerves are all?

Just say it, scream it like you mean it

I need you now and forevermore

Yeah, I need you now and forevermore

It′s been a difficult year

I just wish we'd been together to face it
