I spent a year dreaming my life away
Time was wasted so wonderfully
I filled all the lost hours with memories
And I live to squander another day

I spent a year with only a pinky ring
All my other fingers completely unbound
I learned people can’t be twisted around
And I don’t regret anything

I spent a year chasing butterflies
I found more hope than I lost
Sometimes the gamble is worth the cost
And I know now where my future lies

I spent a year learning and growing
Keeping my eye on the ones that stay
They’re what makes it all worth it anyway
And next year? there’s no way of knowing.
