Lyrics Never before has a year brought me so much joy and pain And laughter and shame Never before has a year been so cruel yet so kind So enlightened, so blind But I’m not complaining No, I’m just refraining on what has come to be It’s just a shame that I have to depart With such a bittersweet taste in me Never before has the time swept by so quickly Yet drug on so slowly I’ll try to explain it next Composition © 1990 Ric Albano Publication © 2011 Cygnus Wave Music	Song Info Produced & Engineered by Ric Albano Composed on December 12, 1990 Recorded December 1990 at Rathole Studios, Hazleton, PA Mixed in 2003 & Mastered in 2011 at Cygnus Wave Studios Performers Ric Albano 12-string Acoustic Guitars, Vocals Listener Guide Grade Analysis: A short, intro song written about the year 1990, which contains some backwards-masked 12-string chrords, strummed in reverse to match the finger-picked melody line.
