Good Year

You used to write my name

On the back of your notebook

All adorned with smiles and hearts and stars

But lately it would appear

That you found yourself a black magic marker

Just to make absolutely sure

That no one ever thought

That you'd take it that far

It's been a good year for, bad days

Or a bad year for, good days

Well here we go again now, here we go again now

You used to write me those

Funny little letters

In a language ours and ours alone

I gave my "Catcher in the Rye"

For your "Cats Cradle"

And I gave my "White" for your "Abby Road"

It's been a good year for, bad days

Or a bad year for, good days

Well, here we go again now, here we go again now

Truck tires, trash fires

Face first, through the wire

Adios, Au'revoir

I see now what I never saw

No more pet names, postcards and picture frames

Adios, Au'revoir

I see now what I never saw

No more bad knees

Post cards and picture frames

Adios, Au'revoir

I see now that I never saw

It's been a good year for, bad days

Or a bad year for, good days

It's been a good year for, bad days

Or a bad year for, good days

It's been a good year for, bad days

Or a bad year for, good days

It's been a good year for, bad days

Or a bad year for, good days yeah...........
