This Will Be The Year

Toast to me, hold up my glass
 To all mistakes I've made
 Good intentions washed away
 As soon as spring time came
 I danced a summer, fell an autumn
 Another candle blown
 Now winter's come around again
 And back where I begun
 And even though you heard it all
 I know you don't believe
 Let me keep the last thing left for me
 This will be the year, the year
 The year I learn to take some time
 To stop and breathe it in
 To keep a promise to myself
 To finish what I begin
 Bad habits stop, no more regrets
 A step out of the red
 Open arms and an open heart
 To all that lies ahead
 And even though you've heard it all
 And I know you don't believe
 Let me keep the last thing left for me
 This will be the year, the year
 My faith carries me
 I'll keep holding on
 And I'll face finally
 What I've been doing wrong
 I know you don't believe
 But just for me can't you pretend?
 That you'll never ever hear me say
 These words again
 I know this time I won't be late
 This time I will arrive
 Save my tears, save my doubts
 This time I will try
 I know I can be better
 I promise I'll be strong
 I'll make them see what I had been
 Seeing all along
 I know you've heard it all before
 And I know you don't believe
 But let me keep the last thing left for me
 This will be the year, the year
