We always meant to go back *blank* just passed us by

A to Panama...but the year
B to Panama but the ... years
C to...Panama but the years

The correct option that uses an ellipsis appropriately is:

D to Panama but the years...

This option suggests that the speaker is leaving thoughts about the years unstated, which is a proper use of an ellipsis.
