Christmas Lights Lyrics

[00:22.32] Christmas night
[00:23.93] Another fight
[00:25.89] Tears we cried a flood
[00:29.48] Got all kinds of poison in
[00:32.97] Of poison in my blood
[00:36.65] I took my feet to Oxford street
[00:40.50] Trying to right a wrong
[00:44.03] "Just walk away" those windows say
[00:47.44] But I can't believe she's gone
[00:51.26] When you're still waiting for the snow to fall
[00:55.39] Doesn't really feel like Christmas at all
[01:00.19]
[01:12.18] Up above candles on air flicker
[01:15.90] Oh, they flicker, and they flow
[01:20.10] And I'm up here holding onto
[01:23.26] All those chandeliers of hope
[01:26.64] And like some drunken Elvis singing
[01:30.49] I go singing out of tune
[01:34.49] Singing how I always loved you, darling
[01:38.33] And I always will
[01:41.60] Oh, when you're still waiting for the snow to fall
[01:45.76] It doesn't really feel like Christmas at all
[01:50.09] Still waiting for the snow to fall
[01:53.27] It doesn't really feel like Christmas at all
[01:58.40]
[02:12.50] Those Christmas lights
[02:16.64] Light up the street
[02:19.50] Down where the sea and city meet
[02:25.41] May all your troubles soon be gone
[02:31.39] Oh, Christmas lights keep shining on
[02:37.01] Those Christmas lights
[02:40.42] Light up the street
[02:43.11] Maybe they'll bring her back to me
[02:48.53] And then all my troubles will be gone
[02:54.85] Oh, Christmas lights keep shining on
[03:01.75]
[03:12.80] Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
[03:19.30]
[03:24.32] Oh, Christmas lights
[03:28.32] Light up the street
[03:31.15] Light up the fireworks in me
[03:36.72] May all your troubles soon be gone
[03:42.96] Those Christmas lights keep shining on
[03:48.69]
