  • And the crown it weighs heavy
    'Till it's banging on my eyelids
    Retreating in covers and closing the curtains
    One thing's for certain, oh
    A year like this passes so strangely
    Somewhere between sorrow and bliss

    Oh, who decides from where up high?
    I couldn't say I need more time
    Oh, grant that I can stay the night
    Or one more day inside this life

    Too much, too much, too much, too much, too much
    Never enough
    Too much, too much, too much, too much, too much
    Never enough
    Too much, too much, too much, too much, too much
    Never enough
    Too much, too much, too much, too much, too much
    Never, never, never enough

    Oh, you wondrous creature
    Coming up who we are
    'Cause I'm retreating in covers and closing the curtains
    One thing's for certain, oh
    A year like this passes so strangely
    Somewhere between sorrow and bliss

    And who decides from where up high (one other year, a hundred flags flying in a field)
    I couldn't say I need more time (one day, felt it let go of me)
    Oh, grant that I can stay the night (one other year, a hundred flags flying in a field)
    Or one more day inside this life (one day, felt it let go of me)

    Too much, too much, too much, too much, too much
    Never enough
    Too much, too much, too much, too much, too much
    Never enough
    Too much, too much, too much, too much, too much
    Never enough
    Too much, too much, too much, too much, too much
    Never, never, never enough

    And who cares about the thing I did that night?
    So what, maybe Luna had it right
    And who cares if I'm coming back alive?
    So what, 'least I have the strength to fight

    Too much, too much, too much, too much, too much
    Never enough
    Too much, too much, too much, too much, too much
    Never enough
    Too much, too much, too much, too much, too much
    Never enough
    Too much, too much, too much, too much, too much
    Never, never, never enough

    One other year, a hundred flags flying in a field
    One day, felt it let go of me
    One other year, a hundred flags flying in a field
    One day, felt it let go of me
    A hundred flags flying in a field
    One day, felt it let go of me
    One other year, a hundred flags flying in a field
    One day, felt it let go of me Writer/s: EMILE HAYNIE, FLORENCE LEONTINE MARY WELCH, JEFFREY NATH BHASKER
