Next year's bound to be better
Than what's gone on before
If you are writing all of this down
If you are keeping score
A few things we will never know
A few we'll never figure out
Just that next year's going to be better
When it rolls around

Next year's going to be better
Than all those in the past
Thankfully they came and went
As they were never meant to last
With the years born on the wind
They come and go like the breeze
Next year's going to be better
As the past is not to be

Next year's bound to be better
If you're here holding out hope
In all the what was and what could have been
With the seeds that time has sown
Next year's bound to be better
Than anything you've ever dreamed
Next year's going to be better
You can count on it sight unseen
