Long Year |
| I came in off a dead-end street |
| Walked in slow and took a back row seat |
| I knew I had nothing new to say |
| So many people looked so burned out |
| I couldn’t help feeling bad about |
| Just having to be there anyway |
| A friend of a friend from work came in |
| I never had known what to make of him |
| He had always seemed to be so insincere to me |
| You know I’ve always been afraid of the 12-Step crowd |
| They laugh too much and talk too loud |
| Like they all know where everyone should be |
| It’s been a long, long long year |
| It’s been a long, long long year |
| How did I get here? |
| They were talkin' in a circle, I was by myself |
| Everyone was tellin' everyone how they felt |
| It felt like so long since I’d been young |
| As the circle kept movin' its way to the back |
| I was wonderin' what I was gonna say in fact |
| I still didn’t know as it rolled off my tongue |
| It’s been a long, long long year |
| It’s been a long, long long year |
| How did I get here? |
| I didn’t say a word all the way to my car |
| But a little later on that night at the bar |
| I was tellin' everybody how strange my day had been |
| They said, «Brother, all you need is another shot» |
| So I threw one down and said «Thanks a lot» |
| As I thought to myself, «Well, here we go again» |
| It’s been a long, long long year |
| It’s been a long, long long year |
| How did I get here? |
