ain't no christmas

Singer:roth, david lee

sure looked good on paper

once upon a lie. happily never after and i'm not okay to drive. you and me both

speaking the language of dreams. now

it's dark glasses on a sleepless night. ain't no christmas for me. let's put the pin back in this one and say we both survived. last blank space on the map

i think we've arrived. headway or getaway

makes no difference to me. this side or the other. ain't no christmas for me. shakespeare's heroes all drink ale

his villains all drink beer. i had to drink something bitter

or i wouldn't be here. have a pitcher full of pity

a shot of possibility. a tall

cool glass of nothing else

makes no difference to me. dark glasses on a sleepless night. ain't no christmas for me. here's where the narrative changes. only hurts when i'm awake

that you can believe. yeah

i'd do it all again

just not for free. if love is a collect call

why

why is it always for me?

quittin' while you're ahead ain't quittin'

and i'm quittin'. locals only naked city and the visit ain't free. it was the pear on the ground

not the apple in the tree. give me a pitcher full of pity and a shot of possibility. this side or the other. ain't no christmas for me. no christmas. ain't gonna be no christmas. ain't no christmas for me. ain't no christmas for me. not this year.
