Russell Crowe & The Ordinary Fear of God One Good Year Lyrics

(Cleaves/Brooks)

It's New Years Day just like the day before
Same old skies of grey, same empty bottles on the floor
Another years gone by, and I was thinking once again
How can I take this losing hand and somehow win

Chorus:
Just give me One Good Year. To get my feet back on the ground
I've been chasing grace.Grace ain't so easily found
One bad hand can devil a man, chase him and carry him down
I've got to get out of here, just give me One Good Year

I'm burning oil, engine's running rough
I drive from job to job, but it's never enough
I can't find the will to just up and get away
Some kind of chain is holding me down and making me stay

Chorus:
Just give me One Good Year. To get my feet back on the ground
I've been chasing grace. Grace ain't so easily found
One bad hand can devil a man, chase him and carry him down
I've got to get out of here, just give me One Good Year

Bridge:
It's a bitter wind in your face every day
It's the little sins that wear your soul away
When you start giving in, where do the promises all go
Will your darkest hour write a blank check on your soul

It's New Years Day just like the day before
Same old skies of grey, same empty bottles on the floor
Another years gone by, and I was thinking once again
How can I take this losing hand and somehow win

Chorus:
Just give me One Good Year. To get my feet back on the ground
I've been chasing grace. Grace ain't so easily found
One bad hand can devil a man, chase him and carry him down
I've got to get out of here, just give me One Good Year
