Feels like snow again I'm going back home again I'm driving those old roads again And old corners The house looks the same as it did And dad asks how things have been Mom calls me her long lost kid Just like always It's been a hard year And I don't want to talk about it here It's been a long fall but I'm climbing out It's been a long fall but I'm climbing out I take the dog for a walk Not much has changed around here I sneak a cigarette and talk To an empty sky And try not to think about How you used to laugh out loud And then come crashing down Where I could hold you It's been a hard year And I don't want to talk about it here It's been a long fall but I'm climbing out It's been a long fall but I'm climbing out You called to say You're sorry for the missing me You were just so angry So angry A wife and a mother now Sometimes you still think about how Things might have gone with you and me And oh well, I guess it doesn't matter anyway It's been a hard year And I don't want to talk about it here It's been a long fall but I'm climbing out It's been a long fall but I'm climbing out It's been a long fall but I'm climbing out
