Everything But The Girl - 25th December Lyrics






And I see forests and it's the 25th of December
and my old man plays the piano for Christmas
He plays the piano for Christmas

And we're all there, all the aunties and uncles
and the angel's on the top of the tree
Up there on the top of the tree

And I never, no I never ever realized
And I never, no I never ever realized

Have I enough time, have I just some time
to revisit, to go back, to return, to open my mouth again
and say something different this time

And I see bags of newspaper and a car in the carport
and you're a grown up and still unsure
and I'm thirty and I don't know nothin' no more

And I never, no I never ever realized
And I never, no I never ever realized

And I'm sitting, sitting on the top of the stairs
and you're crying out on the towpath by the river
with all the swans and all the people walking by

And all of a sudden I'm stuck with an urge to unlock a door
with a key that's too big for my hands
and I drop it, and it falls at your feet
Come on, come on, it's there at your feet

And I never, no I never ever realized
And I never, no I never ever realized

    Have I enough time, have I just some time, to revisit, to go back, to return, to open my mouth again. And say something different this time. (That part of the song always breaks my heart.) It seems that during the holidays, when things should be better, different than things are now is when we realize that maybe things could have been better had we...

    Joe "the Skinny Grasshopper" Perez said this song was, "some heat." Robyn pointed out that 360 other people like it, implicitly saying it's not popular. Madura voted against hearing it. Frankly, I think it's awesome. It's my favourite Christmas Song.

    All the folk giving this thumbs up 😂it’s absolutely dogshit, which is why no one knows about it. Some of the most random lyrics, it doesn’t even make sense, it’s a mixture of a song a bloke with a guitar improvises drunk at a party of like one of those songs you would create when you were a teenager when you started a band and think yeah this is gonna be a huge hit. C’mon c’mon it’s there at your feet (the key that opens the door that’s too big for your hands that is). Shite
