authentically inspired by Christmastime, this is a new holiday tune to warm the belly and stir the dancing inside your head.
lyrics
on the eve of Christmas
all through the town
every house is quiet
ain’t no sound
I’m wide awake, just waiting around for you
Loveless Christmas, what else can I do?
hanging up ornaments
drying paint
people decorating
a brand name saint
it ain’t me - I’m a liar and a cheat
Loveless Christmas, what else could I be?
shopping lines at Best Buy
instant replay
all the world’s a bed stye
of moral decay
I’m dead awake, just waiting for something new
Loveless Christmas, what else could I do?
home team is losing,
gettin' ready to punt
Christmas is amazing,
you can do whatever you want
I’m a wreck, loose, free of fancies and fancy-free
Loveless Christmas, how bad could it be?
poking at the fire
with a yule tide stick
changing up a tire
‘cause the roads are slick
babe come quick, I’ve been waiting O so long...
Loveless Christmas, ain't just the name of the song
