This Will Be Our Year

I can live with my old friend disappointment I can live with things not as they ought to be I can snatch a sorry crumb of comfort From the jaws of what might have been victory I'll make do, like everyone Put my head upon the pillow when the day is done I make do, don't we all? Hope we're heading for a future and not headed for a fall I don't know what this world's about But this will be our year I don't know why I'm singing out But this will be our year Day by day, brick by brick we build it Make a life, make something to call your own Just enough to keep the wolf at bay Just enough so you don't feel so alone I'll make do, like everyone What the point regretting all the things we've done? We make do, that's what it takes You keep on keeping on and you learn from your mistakes I don't know what this world's about But this will be our year I don't know why I'm singing out But this will be our year Come on now, this will be our year This will be our year I make do, like everyone I put my head down on the pillow when the day is done We make done, that's what it takes You keep on keeping on and you learn from your mistakes I don't know what this world's about But this will be our year I don't know why I'm singing out But this will be our year I don't know what this world's about But this will our year I don't know why I'm singing out But this will be our year Come on now, this will be our year This will be our year This will be our year --- This Will Be Our Year - Nerina Pallot
