Winter days turn to grey
put the headlights on
snow and rain
wiped away
I can't keep my eyes
on the road
When I'm driving home
I got tears running down
burning in my eyes
and you and I..
heated by the flicker
of a lighter oh
And I let it go
but I just got here
I know it's been a while
darling, dear
there's been a change
in the time of year
When the frost
bites the snow
and Christmas
comes around
For the down and outs
and broken lay-abouts
What will they do now
when Christmas
comes around?
We were so in love
till I messed it up
But who will
love me now
when Christmas
comes around?
Family asking me
why I let you go
Telling me it's a mistake
I'm telling them that
I know but I can't call you
you're in a space
better place
loving on a new man
I don't blame you at all
you did all that you can
I know
But I just got here
I know it's been a while
darling, dear
there's been a change
in the time of year
When the frost
bites the snow
and Christmas
comes around
For the down and outs
and broken lay-abouts
What will they do now
when Christmas
comes around?
We were so in love
till I messed it up
But who will
love me now
when Christmas
comes around?
And I am sick
of all the songs
the Christmas sing-alongs
the merry and the cheer
'cause I don't feel
like that this year
All the bells are all in sync
and my soul
is on the brink
so I'll have
myself a drink
And sing
when Christmas
comes around
For all the down and outs
and broken lay-abouts
What will they do now
when Christmas
comes around?
We were so in love
till I messed it up
But who will
love me now
when Christmas
comes around?
Will you love me now
when Christmas
comes around?
