Mark my words child Don't you feel an ounce of fear This time next year There will be no more sorrow and no more tears This time next year Kick the doors apart Set the world on fire This time next year Have everything your heart desires This time next year Chorus This time this time This time next year We'll kiss and look back and laugh at this This time next year I know the waters may be a little rough This time next year We bury the hatchet with lady luck This time next year Then we raise our glass for the ones we lost This time next year Reminiscing little late december's cross This time next year Chorus Tonight we put the past in his place Drink to the future and turn the page Leave it all behind This time next year This time next year We'll kiss and look back and laugh at this This time next year Chorus Chorus This time next year We'll kiss and look back and laugh at this This time next year
