Last night I slept with a stranger for the first time since you've gone Regretfully lying naked I reflect on what I've done Her leg still forced in between mine, sticking to my skin Stroking my chest and my hair, head resting below my chin I'm a fox trapped in the headlights Oh, and I'm waiting for the tires to spin over me 'Cause everything I love has gone away Oh, 'cause everything I love has gone away Oh, the dark night is moving slower, oh, and sleep won't rescue me Leaving me here to suffer, this shameful misery So I long for a taste of freedom or at least freedom from this bed Silently picking up my clothes, I turned on my heels and I fled And the dark of the street is no solace to me Oh, and I don't believe my conscience will ever be clear again 'Cause everything I love has gone away Oh, 'cause everything I love has gone away You know in a year it's gonna be better You know in a year I'm gonna be happy You know in a year it's gonna be better You know in a year I'm gonna be happy You know in a year it's gonna be better You know in a year I'm gonna be happy You know in a year it's gonna be better You know in a year I'm gonna be happy You know in a year it's gonna be better You know in a year I'm gonna be happy
