[Intro]

It's been a difficult year

It's like time gone wasted

It's just been a difficult year

And I wish we'd been together to face it


[Verse 1]

Some days it seems okay

Got some good friends around me

But I'm still scared of losing my head

I guess there's just something selfish about me


[Chorus]

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


[Verse 2]

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


[Chorus]

A dozen months go by, used to 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


[Bridge]

Is it too late to find someone to

Shield you when your nerves are raw?

Just say and sing it like you mean it

I need you now and forevermore

Yeah, is it too late to find someone to

Shield you when your nerves are raw?

Just say and scream it like you mean it

I need you now and forevermore

Yeah, I need you now and forevermore


[Outro]

It's been a difficult year

I just wish we'd been together to face it
