Текст песни Imperfect Christmas - MALINDA

Dust off the decorations that we've had for ages
Pull out the ancient Christmas books, all losing there pages
Test every strand of light and drape the tree in 83 ways
Wear that one nice dress to church but otherwise it's PJs

I wear my ugly sweater with the snowflake on
Our suger cookie Santas look a little bit demonic
We'll wrap the house in lights while our fingers freeze away then
Drive around to judge everyone else's display

We light the tree to carols
Like my mama did before
The folksy ones that no one seems to sing so much anymore

'Cause breaking with tradition is a family crime
So we'll recite every story and rhyme
On this perfectly imperfect Christmas time

Listen to the Radio that's mostly just commercials
Or try to open up but end up talking in circles
My dad insists on family time and so we play a game
But competition gets too crazy so we quit while we're sane

Our Gingerbread house simply refuses to erect
But it's these funny little things that we've come to expect

'Cause breaking with tradition is a family crime
So we'll recite every story and rhyme
On this perfectly imperfect Christmas time

Ponder all the goals and resolutions we've missed
Text the friends we think of to remind that we exist
'Cause Christmas is here whether we feel it or no
Some hate to see you come
Some hate to see her go

Laugh at all the gifts that really miss the mark
Just knowing that the thoughts still came from the heart
Each holiday movie every year the same jokes
But we still laugh under our breath
Like we've forgot how they go

It's these treasured rituals that sweeten up life's spell
The memories that we already know
But still can't wait to tell

'Cause we make the light when the sun refuses to shine
So we'll recite every story and rhyme
On this perfectly imperfect Christmas time
We'll have a perfectly imperfect Christmas time
