A Merry Pristmas E​.​P.

I said “Do you think you love me?” She said “Perhaps that I might” “And look the snow is falling” And though the subject was changed, It didn’t spoil a fine night. Can we delay the morning? You moved in closer to me, A smile in gas-fired glow. The fake embers yawning. And we laughed at ourselves And watched the Christmas Eve shows With the day not dawning (Chorus) And this Christmas thing’s alright On this dark and snowy night I won’t be waiting by the phone It’s not a Christmas on my own This Christmas thing’s alright I even like it more tonight I won’t be waiting by the phone This Christmas I won’t be alone. When we kissed a goodnight, Reluctantly I walk home With that snow falling. And the cold stings my face But I really don’t know. I think of Christmas morning. I look up at the sky Clouds turn the stormy dark, gold. Fanfares for Christmas dawning. And I had to admit It was a story untold. Of White Christmas forming. (Chorus) as above (Middle) And I’m singing “Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas” When it occurs to me. Perhaps I might actually like Christmas More than I think. Or is it the drink? I shudder to think. (Chorus) as above

Waiting for the phone On a Christmas Eve. Can’t spend it on my own. I think here comes the freeze. And I've got this feeling. It'll be a better one. But all my friends have gone, Home to their families. I turn the TV on to see the festive fun. It looks like everyone has got someone to love.. love. Maybe this year they'll see. It'll all work out for me. Maybe next year they'll see. Some kind of better me. So Happy Christmas all. No matter where you are. And Jesus loves us all. Yeah, Jesus loves us all. So Happy Xmas let's forget all this mess. It can't take the hurt away, But I'll try to make it less..make it less. Refrain: Did I tell you ? That I love you ? I wrote this song for you. Because it's Christmas. Let's have a drink tonight. Lay rest to hate & spite. Put your arms round me. It's Christmas.
