Maybe Next Year

San Fernando Valley goes on forever
And I’m up in these hills thinking I’ll never
See this sunrise again, cause it’s time to go home
 
Man you come this town, try to give it a shot
And it just breaks your heart, takes all you’ve got
More than ten million here but I’ve never felt so alone
 
I guess it wasn’t my time now
I guess it wasn’t my time now but maybe next year

I guess it wasn’t my time now
I guess it wasn’t my time now but maybe next year
 
I’ve been playing a fool all over this place
Every slamming door, every pretty face
There’s nothing in this town that’s ever been what it seemed
 
Now my money’s gone and the well’s run dry
I’m just another broken spirit here wondering why
There’s something in my heart won’t let go of this dream
 
I guess it wasn’t my time now
I guess it wasn’t my time now but maybe next year
I guess it wasn’t my time now
I guess it wasn’t my time now but maybe next year
 
And the hardest part is letting go
And the way they’ll start with I told you so
Yeah the hardest part is letting go
Once you know
Once you know
Once you know
 
I guess it wasn’t my time now
I guess it wasn’t my time now but maybe next year

I guess it wasn’t my time now
I guess it wasn’t my time now but maybe next year

I guess it wasn’t my time now
I guess it wasn’t my time now but maybe next year
