it was a very good year - robbie williams lyrics
written by ervin drake
when i was seventeen, it was a very good year.
it was a very good year for small town girls and soft summer nights.
we’d hide from the light on the village green when i was seventeen.
when i was twenty-one, it was a very good year.
it was a very good year for city
girls who lived up the stairs
with perfume hair that came undone
when i was twenty-one.
when i was thirty-five, it was a very good year.
it was a very good year for blue-blooded
girls of independent means.
we’d ride in limousines. their chauffeurs
would drive when i was thirty-five.
but now the days are short, i’m in the
autumn of the year
and now i think of my life as vintage
wine from fine old kegs
from the brim to the dregs. it poured
sweet and clear. it was a very good year.
