Decemberism

Decemberism - Man Overboard

We all wait for the snow to fall

And I hate this time of year

Because it kills us all but we

Run around like kids on the loose

Chasing dreams like the babies

Play duck duck goose and I

Wait by the window cause

She said she would call

And when you finally do

I watch the words fall out of

My mouth and stick to my shirt

The summer's always lovely

But the winters always hurt

And maybe next year you could

Find me somewhere in the dirt

Who could forget

It was almost 2003

We kissed under your Christmas tree

While your parents were asleep

I was 15

On top of the world

I was 15

And you were my girl

And all I'm saying is for Christmas this

Year I would kinda like to see you

Happy holidays let's hope for the best

And I'll try to ignore the feeling

That I get in my chest when I

Think about all the time that we missed

Being caught up growing up and

Acting selfish and pissed but I

Wait by the airport cause

You said you'd come home

And by now my hands are

Glued to my phone as you

Walk on a plane to fly home from LA

I'm missing you on Christmas

In the worst kind of way

And maybe next time it won't

Be so easy for you to stray

Who could forget

It was almost 2003

We kissed under your Christmas tree

While your parents were asleep

I was 15

On top of the world

I was 15

And you were my girl

And all I'm saying is for Christmas

This year I would kinda like to see you
