lyrics

[Chorus]
Throw it under the tree and say it's from me
but don't tell a soul what I've done
Spreading holiday cheer is what I do-- I'm sincere!
For you, I will wait till next year.

Go down my list as I write Christmas cards and get to you; what's the plan?
A year before, we talked, the laughs abound. Things have changed I have found.
Your gaze is fatal like another's gun. I see you out yet talk to everyone.
But in this season, let's not play this game... still, it's hard to reason...

[Chorus]

A Christmas present for the one you love is meant to say without words, "I love you, dear, 'cause out of everyone, the pain from this year had worth."
But no one told me I was supposed to know on our first Christmas, I'd be left under the mistletoe!
You go on living like you've never known of all the bridges you've burned...

[Chorus]

I'm almost desperate to find a way
to make the holiday cheer last. Between the parties and reunions,
I find I'm missing your laugh...
It's weird to say, but in the summer time, the future seemed unclear, yours and mine...
I went on my way, too, and sought to learn how to handle what comes

[Chorus]

My resolution for the new year
builds on the one from the last: My heart, it's nothing but a tender spot; I'll stop regretting the past!
Just like Spring Cleaning, but of a different kind, the Christmas season is for spending time with ones who want your company as you want theirs... and for drinking fine wine!

[Chorus}

Of you I will try to stay clear as Christmas is drawing near!

about

Liz McBride! Youngstown, Ohio

"There are nightingales and nightingales. This one was a diva, a Callas. One would readily have disbursed a small fortune to hear her sing in a concert hall. Its tone, of an ineffable sweetness... Under a rich, deep, nocturnal sky, they would stand for an hour, hushed and spellbound, listening to the nightingale." ... more
