In ’85, Tuesday morning

In ’85, Tuesday morning,
 Came alive, I didn’t know ya
Route 66 is gone, and Reagan’s here,
 It won’t be long
 Nintendo comes,
 Live Aid, too,
 Back to the Future
 Where were you,
 While I spent all my days
 In Catholic school?

In ’89,
The dream begins,
 First in line to California,
 Pete Rose is banned for good,
 The Simpsons come to Hollywood,
 Russia leaves Afghanistan,
 Flight 103 ends Pan Am,
 Bush is here
 This is the year
 That I feel most alone

Chorus:
 No more
 Countin’ down the hours
 No more
 Wishin’ you were here
 I stopped believin’,
 Although Journey told me ‘don’t’
 Before I call it a day,
 Maybe this’ll be my year
 Maybe this’ll be my year
 Maybe this’ll be my year
 Maybe this’ll be my year

In ’92, a boy is born,
 The skies were blue
 In Ohio Boris Yeltsin chills,
 Freddie dies,but Queen is still,
 Barcelona has the games,
 Lady Di is single again,
 Clinton wins,
 And I still dream
 That I’ll find you someday
 In ’97, a baby girl,
 Adds some heaven to the world,
 Tony Blair tips the scales,
 Elton sings for the Princess of Wales,
Microsoft buys into Mac,
 My dad has a second heart attack,
 And Train leaves San Francisco
 In a thousand-dollar van.

Chorus:
 No more
 Countin’ down the hours
 No more
 Wishin’ you were here
 I stopped believin’,
 Although Journey told me ‘DON’T’
 Before I call it a day,
 Maybe this’ll be my year
 Maybe this’ll be my year
 Maybe this’ll be my year
 Maybe this’ll be my year

2001, the towers fell,
 The World is stunned,
 I wish I knew ya
 I was on a plane,
 The world would never be the same
 The artificial heart is born
 Ironic when New York’s is torn out
 Woah-oah-oah-oah
 2004, began in May,
 On tour when I met ya
 Facebook joins the Internet,
Oldsmobile joins the cassette
 I met your family.
 Took a while until you kissed me,
 But when you did,
 I finally felt at home.

[Break]

I stopped believin’
 Although Journey told me ‘DON’T’
 Before I call it a day,
 Maybe this’ll be my year, oh-oh
 Maybe this’ll be my year, oh-oh
 Maybe this’ll be my year, oh-oh
 Maybe this’ll be my year, oh-oh

2012, and all I know
 Is everybody comes and goes
 Everybody sings and cries,
 Makes the grade and takes the prize
 In somethin’, nothin’, I don’t care,
 Because I always know that you’ll be here, with me.
