mistle toe and silver snow,
and ivy growing on the walls,
i wish i could erase these dreams, i do.
but all my days are running by
in shopping malls with endless lines
i don't know how i got here, do you?
somewhere between the catalogs
of what to get for him
somewhere amidst the china dolls
my vision starts to spin
'cause i thought christmas was supposed to be
more than lighting up the christmas tree
more than filling up our socks with toys
more than all of this tremendous noise
so all i really mean to say
is let's not throw this time away
i'd rather just sip chocolate with you
and if you'd like to treat me nice
don't wait for snow don't wait for ice
i'm always in the season, are you?
somewhere on santa's list
my name's been crossed off with a slash
somewhere i'm gonna find a better way
to spend my cash
'cause i thought christmas was supposed to be
more than lighting up the christmas tree
more than filling up our socks with toys
more than all of this tremendous noise
i'm always in the season, are you?
