I'll have a blue blue Christmas without you I'll be so blue just thinking about you Decorations of red on a green Christmas tree Won't mean a thing if you're not here with me
I'll have a blue Christmas that's certain And when that blue heartaches starts hurting You'll be doing alright with your Christmas of white But I’ll have a blue, blue Christmas
You'll be doing alright with your Christmas of white But I’ll have a blue, blue Christmas
All there years you've been speaking without breathing Spinning closer to the sun Had your way with an unsuspecting public Little threads are all it takes
La la la
I have learned all your secrets, so familiar I know where you lay your head Fear of god and a disappointing father Holds the hand around your neck
La la la
Sometimes I could just choke myself with laughter Sometimes everything's so true So when you come down from your death-defying labors I'll still be in love with you
It's for certain I never thought I'd last Never thought the sea would try
It's for certain You can tie me to the mast Goodbye to all the land and lies And when all the stars have gone out They won't fall, you can hear them crying And when all the stars have gone out They're not gone, you can hear them dying And it say it's enough
I'm tired of waking up in the same clothes And the same holes in my skin And the same notes, in the same hair And the same words to the same words To the same songs in my head
One more dance Before they take away the light One more spin around the line One more step And then we'll turn and face the debt One more reason to forget
Three inches above the floor Man in a box wants to burn my soul And I'm tired, and I'm tired.
Is that the truth he says The pain is easy Too many words, too many words
And I can hear 'em
If you're hearing screams Come back child, come back My hands are dry But I know they're gonna make it Just one more night Too many words, too many words
