Let’s begin where the story ends
I’ll try to explain how I lost mty friends
I didn’t stop then I knew I should
I've got nothing now, it’s gone for good

I guess they want me dead, a bounty on my head
I say, just let them come, yeah bring them on
Are you listening now, can I get through somehow
I’ve been waiting for so long
This is last years’s song

It all began in this payed up town
You were looking for a way out, love strapped you down

I turned and ran as we were taking our vows
It sure is hard to run in a wedding-gown

So I stole your car, and ean in through your heart
And the radio was on, playing last year’s song
Are you listening now, can I get through somehow
I’ve been waiting for so long
This is last years’s song

I heard you fell in love again (with what’s her name)
She used to be my friend (not anymore)
I hope you’ll make it in the end, I’m free now

No I’m not afraid now, no no
Yeah I’m on my way now and I got through somehow

If you’re listening now, I bet you hear that sound
Of the preacher’s raging on, banning last year’s song

Are you listening now, did I get trough somehow
When you’re finally catching on, then I’m gone, like last years song

I’m not afraid now
It’s gone away now, yeah, you’re on your way now
It is New Year’s Day now and I got throgh somehow
