Last year we waited for the snow in vain   But instead it just rained   And last year the strangest sadness filled the air   We never thought we'd feel this way   On our favourite day of the whole long year      But don't worry because   This year it will be different   Real and heartfelt   This year it will be different   All will fall into place   This year won't be like      Last year   When the lights of love had disappeared   We were lonely and astray   Oh last year   Like a candle without a flame   We watched the season slip away   While our hearts were trapped in some cold dark place      But this year it will be different   Real and heartfelt   This year it will be different   All will fall into place   Because this year won't be like      Last year   Enough about last year      This year it will be different   Real and heartfelt   This year it will be different   Our hearts will melt   This year it will be different   All will fall into place   And real love will prevail
