This Year, Next Year? - T.V. Smith

It all happens in the dark

A complicated knot ties up your time

And suddenly that's your lot

It could be worse

It should be better

It's coming this year

Next year sometime never

You see the world

And you learn a lot

Sprawled in the doorway of expensive shops

A broken doll in need of shelter

It's coming this year

Next year sometime never

You could hit a rich vein

Get on track If you could shake

That monkey off your back

But he's hanging on covering your eyes

Whispering his seductive lies

Future's bright it lasts forever

And it's coming this year

Next year sometime never

This year

Next year sometime never

It's coming this year

Next year sometime never

This year

Next year sometime never

It's coming this year

Next year sometime never

This year

Next year sometime never
