This year has been a good year
Even Marie agrees
She swears that in a few years
Shell be the next big thing
They don't believe her, but I let her keep dreamingThis is the season of a lifetime passing you by
If that matters, oh, oh, oh
The best things are always gone in the blink of an eye
The drummer boy's beating, oh, oh, oh, ohThis year has been a good year
I don't think Johnny agrees
Christine, the girl of his dreams
Decided to cut him free
He says he's fine, although his heart thinks differentThis is the season of a lifetime passing you by
If that matters, oh, oh, oh, oh
The best things are always gone in the blink of an eye

Next year the sun will shine our way
This year has been a good year
Thats what they're all telling meThey swear that this is our year
Were going to make it big
I'd like to believe them, so I let them keep dreamingThis is the season of a lifetime passing you by
If that matters, oh, oh, oh, oh
The best things are always gone in the blink of an eye
