[Chorus]
Must we wait another year
For the celebration, dear?
If we do, we'll hold it here
Same time next year

[Verse 1]
I'll be here, the same as ever
Maybe wearing something else
Ah, but nothin' changes
Ah, but nothin' changes

[Verse 2]
Still to me you look the same
As when I forgot your name
Lovers in a lovers' game
Same time next year

[Verse 3]
I'll be here, the same as ever
No, I never go away
Ah, but nothin' changes (Ah, but nothin' changes)
Ah, but nothin' changes

[Instrumental Break]
[Bridge]
Same time next year

[Chorus]
Must we wait another year
For the celebration, dear?
If we do, we'll hold it here
Same time next year

[Post-Chorus]
Same time next year
Same time next year
Same time next year
Same time next year

[Outro]
Same time next year
