Songtexte Christmas, The Sequel - Paul Thomas Saunders

In the fallout from the second coming
We found ourselves in eachother's arms
You took my hands and it felt like Christmas
As an orange glow soaked the room from a hungry fire
Every flame flickered in a pirouette of light
Still the shadows cast round the doorframe left us froze with fright
Oooh merry Christmas lover- it could be us tonight

Oooooooh

Now one by one they're fearless
Like we've been sinking ships with loose lips all our lives
When your eyes were wide like Marilyn
Head to toe in white you told angelic eyes
You kick the old year out and help the new year to its feet
Follow every star above every bar that led to me
Ooooh but when the wage is wrong you just have to leave

Now the sleigh bells rustle as the chain gang shuffles
Like a children's choir they're screaming
You were filled with doubt until the lights went out
And now you wish that you were dreaming

So merry Christmas
Honey I feel your pain
Merry Christmas
I'll leave the light on again
Merry Christmas
Honey I feel no pain
Merry Christmas
I'll leave the lights on again

Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas
