Old 97's
Our Year
[Verse 1]
I remember everything
Lying here awake
Way off of the interstate
Down 848
The devil saw those idle hands
And he knew just what to do
I could barely see the road ahead
I only had eyes for you

[Chorus 1]
I disengaged
And whispered in your ear
This will be our year

[Verse 2]
Hidin' in those piney woods
We grew up nice and slow
Fumblin' through the undergrowth
Where the moon is scared to go
But East Texas has a dark side
And that darkness has a pull
Vices make you hungry
And you never can get full

[Chorus 2]
But we made it out
Now we're in the clear
And this will be our year
[Bridge]
I remember everything
Like it was yesterday
Time will have its way
Time will have its way
I remember everything
I wish I didn't though
Why do you have to go?
Don't you know?
This will be our year

[Outro]
This will be our year
This will be our year
This will be our year
This will be our year
