Lyrics It's Been a Year - Tom Rosenthal

It's Been a Year

All the leaves blow down again
I’ve had time to understand what you said to me
Oh, the birds go south with you
I’ve had time to wonder what I’d say without you
And I’ve run out of dreams
Run out of minds to read
Run out of you
Run out of you
I would give you an Oscar
For the movie you made with me
The one no one is going to see
Da-da-da-da, it’s been a year, oh, what a year
The clouds roll home again
I’ve had time for songs to form new meanings, ooh
And I’ve run out of dreams
Run out of maps to read
Run out of you
Run out of you
I would give you an Oscar
For the movie you made with me
The one no one is going to see
Da-da-da-da, it’s been a year, oh, what a year
So tell me your hopes and then I’ll tell you mine
You gave me my gods then you gave me the sky
I covered my eyes and said, «See ya some other time»
I would give you an Oscar
For the movie you made with me
The one no one is going to see
Da-da-da-da, it’s been a year, oh, what a year
I gotta tell ya
It’s the closest I’ve ever been
To the heart of everything
Da-da-da-da, it’s been a year, oh, what a year
I would give you an Oscar
For the movie you made with me
The one no one is going to see
Da-da-da-da, it’s been a year, oh, what a year
