This Time Next Year Lyrics - Toni Braxton

This time next year, I'll be home lighting candles 

Tryin' to just get on with my life 

And this time next year hope I'm through with the hurting 

Tryin' to get you out of my mind 

So, don't try to play like you're not that concerned 

And don't try to say that your heart doesn't burn 

Oh, tell me 

How can you say that our love isn't special? 

How can you say that our love wasn't true? 

And how can you say you can take it or leave it 

(Leave it) 

When I'm missing you 

And you know, you'll be missing me, too? 

This time next year, I'll be out buying presents 

And something will remind me of you, yeah, yeah 

And this time next year, I'll be out having dinner 

And run into some friends we both knew, yeah, yeah

Oh, don't try to play like you won't be concerned 

And don't try to say that your heart doesn't yearn 

Oh, tell me 

How can you say that our love isn't special? 

How can you say that our love wasn't true? 

And how can you say you can take it or leave it 

(Leave it) 

When I'm missing you 

And you know, you'll be missing me, too? 

Come early Christmas morning 

I'll be having my coffee and I'll think of you 

And the things we used to do, ooh 

And you know, it will be breaking my heart 

'Cause the holidays are special 

It will always play a part in my heart 

Tell me

(How can you say?) 

How can you do it, baby? 

(How can you say?) 

How can you say our love ain't true? 

(How can you say?) 

You can take it or leave it 

(Leave it) 

When I'm missing you 

And you know, you'll be missing 

Tell me 

(How can you say?) 

How can you say baby our love ain't special? 

(How can you say?) 

Tell me, how you say our love ain't true? 

(How can you say?) 

You can take it or leave it 

(Leave it) 

When I'm missing you 

And you know, you'll be missing 

When I'm missing you 

And you know, you'll be missing, baby yeah 

I'm missing you 

And you know 

(You'll be missing) 

That you be missing me, too?
