New Year

I saw Royal Bangs in Knoxville,TN for New Year's Eve.

They (almost) started at midnight. They counted down and then played this song:

This Will Be Our Year
The Zombies

The warmth of your love
is like the warmth of the sun
and this will be our year
took a long time to come

don't let go of my hand
now darkness has gone
and this will be our year
took a long time to come

and I won't forget
the way you held me up when I was down
and I won't forget the way you said,
"Darling I love you"
You gave me faith to go on

Now we're there and we've only just begun
This will be our year
took a long time to come

The warmth of your smile
smile for me, little one
and this will be our year
took a long time to come

You don't have to worry
all your worried days are gone
this will be our year
took a long time to come

and I won't forget
the way you held me up when I was down
and I won't forget the way you said,
"Darling I love you"
You gave me faith to go on

Now we're there and we've only just begun
and this will be our year
took a long time to come

Yeah we only just begun
yeah this will be our year
took a long time to come

I had heard the song before, but it never spoke to me like it did that night. I guess sometimes a song just hits because of "right place, right time" flukes.

So to all my friends and family, this will be our year.
