Bah!Humbug! No...That's too strong. |
[00:47.11] |
Cause it's my favourite holiday. |
[00:49.14] |
But all this year's been busy blur.Don't think I have the energy. |
[00:53.16] |
To add to my already mad rush. Just because it is the season. |
[00:57.38] |
The perfect gift for me would be completion and connections. |
[01:01.34] |
Left from last year, world tour aeroplanes and babies. |
[01:05.72] |
Had his number but never the time. |
[01:07.95] |
Most of '98 passed along those lines. |
[01:09.92] |
So deck those halls, trim those trees. |
[01:11.89] |
Raise up cups of christmas cheer. Ijust need to catch my breath. |
[01:16.10] |

Calendar picture, frozen landscape chilled this room for 24 days. |
[01:30.43] |
Evergreens, sparkling snow, get this winter over with! |
[01:33.82] |
Flashback to spring time, saw him again |
[01:36.55] |
Would've been good to go for lunch |
[01:38.68] |
Couldn't agree when we were both free |
[01:40.63] |
We tried , we said we'd keep in touch |
[01:42.67] |
Didn't of course, 'Til the summertime out to the beach to his boat. |
[01:46.90] |
Could I join him. No. This time it was me. |
[01:48.99] |
Sunburn in the third degree. Now the calendar's just one page. |
[01:52.91] |
And, of course , I am excited. |
[01:55.05] |
Tonight"s the night, but I've set my mind. Not to do too much about it. |
[01:59.23] |
Merry Christmas! Merry Christmas! But I think I'll miss this one this year. |
[02:03.04] |

Hardly dashing through the snow. Cos I bundled up too tight. |
[02:46.68] |
Last minute have-to-dos. A few cards. A few calls. |
[02:50.20] |
Because it's R.S.V.P. No thanks, no party lights. |
[02:54.81] |
It's christmas eve, gonna relax. Turned down all of my invites. |
[02:59.12] |
Last fall I had a night to myself. Same guy called. Halloween party. |
[03:03.26] |
Waited all night for him to show. This time his card wouldn't go. |
[03:07.35] |
Forget it , it's cold it's getting late. Trudge on home to celebrate. |
[03:11.35] |
In a quiet way , unwind, doing christmas right this time. |
[03:15.55] |
Merry Christmas! Merry Christmas! But I think I'll miss this one this year. |

Tesco has provided me, with the world's smallest turkey. |
[03:27.90] |
All in the oven, nice and hot. Oh damn, guess what I forgot? |
[03:31.93] |
So on with the boots, back out in the snow to the only all night garage. |
[03:35.99] |
When what to my wandering eyes should appear. |
[03:38.50] |
In the line is that guy I've been chasing all year. |
[03:40.40] |
Spending this one alone, he said. Need a break, this years been crazy. |
[03:44.23] |
I said, me to, but why are you? You mean you forgot the papers too? |
[03:48.30] |
Then suddenly we laughed and laughed |
[03:50.60] |
Caught on to what was happening. |
[03:52.61] |
Christmas magic's brought this tale to a very happy ending. |
[03:56.73] |
Merry Christmas! Merry Christmas! But I think I'll miss this one this year. |
