about
At this point in our Xmas song career, I was starting to feel like I wasn't sure what else I could make a Xmas song about. This one's kinda sad, but I like some of the imagery.
lyrics
Living now what I have left
with the weight still in my chest.
I breathe the season
and felt it in your kiss.
It won't be long until it ends.
We'll put the boxes back under the bed.
If it kills us we'll mean it
like it's the last chance we'll get.
But you don't have to sing alone.
Because I'm coming home
through the fresh, white fallen snow.
It might take a minute,
but I'm not going to miss it.
I know, I know,
they've been closing down the roads,
but you're gonna see me.
Leave the lights on, I'm leaving now.
Do you remember last year?
Two inches of ice were on your passenger mirror.
When I came to get you
your tears had frozen in your hair.
And all of the blankets you used to get warm?
Two hours with the heat pad, then three or four more.
Is that when I lost you?
Sometimes I still feel alone.
The trees grow and groan
with the weight of melting snow.
I'd take a feeling
over any kind of meaning.
So, if you're gonna go,
wait till no one else is home,
but make sure you mean it
if you're thinking of leaving.
Away in our lonely bed,
I lay down my sweet head.
The stars in the sky look down.
I heard the bells ring out,
and old familiar carols sound.
The hopes and fears of one more night.
But I turned out the lights.
with the weight still in my chest.
I breathe the season
and felt it in your kiss.
It won't be long until it ends.
We'll put the boxes back under the bed.
If it kills us we'll mean it
like it's the last chance we'll get.
But you don't have to sing alone.
Because I'm coming home
through the fresh, white fallen snow.
It might take a minute,
but I'm not going to miss it.
I know, I know,
they've been closing down the roads,
but you're gonna see me.
Leave the lights on, I'm leaving now.
Do you remember last year?
Two inches of ice were on your passenger mirror.
When I came to get you
your tears had frozen in your hair.
And all of the blankets you used to get warm?
Two hours with the heat pad, then three or four more.
Is that when I lost you?
Sometimes I still feel alone.
The trees grow and groan
with the weight of melting snow.

wait till no one else is home,
but make sure you mean it
if you're thinking of leaving.
Away in our lonely bed,
I lay down my sweet head.
The stars in the sky look down.
I heard the bells ring out,
and old familiar carols sound.
The hopes and fears of one more night.
But I turned out the lights.
