Two more years of this then I'll retire
My hands are raw and I've lost a tie
Can't keep pace with all the smiling faces

They know I've lost all my pride

Two more days of this then I'll go blind

My eyes are closed but it frames of white
You've been gone for only two days now
My bed is cold I've done my time


(Chorus)
Who could have known

you would be here
You would be here
on your own

Who could have known
You would be here
You would be here

on your own, on your own

Spinning satellite the year is changing

New Years Eve is just another night
If I told you that the sky was falling
Would you try and start a fight


(Chorus)
Who could have known

you would be here
You would be here
on your own

Who could have known
You would be here
You would be here

on your own
Who could have known
you would be here

You would be here
on your own
Who could have known

You would be here
You could be here
on your own, on your own
