Pretty Good Year

Pretty Good Year - The Loved Ones

I've been working longer hours

Watching money streaming in

I've been trusting crooks and liars like I don't have any friends

I've been finding myself praying when I'm deepest into sin

I've been reinventing happiness again

It's been painful resolution set to jubilant applause

It's soaring highs and crushing lows and grinding in the jaw

It's been begging for forgiveness after laying down the law

It's been like surgery to get through all the flaws

Will this overture seem dull to all my friends

Will you love me if I leave you here again

'Cause there's a faith that could tear this whole thing apart

So pour the drinks and we'll cause the dancing to start

I've been standing at a crossroads for what seems like many days

If I go will the house fall down

Will I burn it if I stay

Will I be fighting like a coward or running like a brave

I'll be laughing like a mad man either way

Will this overture seem dull to all my friends

Will you love me if I leave you here again

When the spell breaks we'll be back to work

What then

There's a faith that could tear this whole thing apart

So pour the drinks and we'll cause the dancing to start

There are lies that could tear this whole thing apart

There are songs that will beg to keep your heart

There are songs that will beg to keep your heart
