Sufjan Stevens - Did I Make You Cry On Christmas Day? (Well, You Deserved It!) Lyrics






This time of year you always disappear
You tell me not to call
You tell me not to call
And when the door is closed you're wearing different clothes
Or hiding in the paper pretending not to hear

Inexpensive wine
I buy it all the time
You tell me take it back
You say you'll take a nap
But I can see it now
You always tell me how
I could do so much better
You said it in your letter

Did I make you cry
on Christmas day?
Did I let you down
Like every other day?
Did I make you cry
on Christmas day?
Did I let you down
On Christmas day?

The bed that isn't made
The broken window shade
The radiator's on
I loved you along
But I can see it now
You always tell me how
I could do so much better
You said it in your letter

I stay awake at night
After we have a fight
I'm writing poems about you
And they aren't very nice
I didn't mean to yell
I said I couldn't tell
I only grabbed your wrist
Or would you rather we kissed?

Did I make you cry
On Christmas day?
Did I make you cry
Like every other day?
Did I make you cry
On Christmas day?
Did I make you cry?

    depression is killing me

  8. r.... ....

    i like both versions
    both make me cry

    r.... ....

    on christmas day?

  9. b.... ....

    i really am living for this song

  10. A.... F....

    this hits hard because it makes me think of that sinking feeling you get as you grow up and the magic of christmad fades and suddenly it becomes so melancholy

    A.... F....

    Couldn't have said it better

    A.... F....

    missing lost loved ones. :(

  11. s.... /....

    its that time of the year again

  12. B.... M....

    2018 and here to fucking cry and lay down all december

  13. B.... ....

    Nothing screams Christmas like a fucking banjo

  14. R.... L....

    Peach Pit brought me here

    R.... L....

    Me too ❤

  15. �.... �....

    I have nothing to add to this beautiful song, other than that I really, really appreciate this photo of him looking dejected in a santa hat.

  16. c.... r....

    it is august right now.

  17. I.... l....

    this is the only christmas song i will ever care about'

    I.... l....

    and dont shoot me santa

    I.... l....

    Also the peach pit version

    I.... l....

    well this one and the zillion other christmas songs by sufjan, no? Glad it's that time of the year, bc. I found myself wanting to listen to them in the middle of summer, bc. those christmas songs by him that are original songs are some of the friggin best! On an unrelated note, try momus': Christmas on Earth, it's a fantastic update on Space Oddity, where A Major Tom-like character muses on how all his friends are around the christmas tree, while he is out alone in space!

  18. 0.... 1....

    he looks so fucking awkward in this photo

  19. S.... X....

    So this is the original

    S.... X....

    Naomi D facts, i only knew the peachpit one😭

  20. C.... P....

    This time of year you always disappear
    You tell me not to call
    You tell me not to call
    And when the door is closed you're wearing different clothes
    Or hiding in the paper pretending not to hear

    Inexpensive wine
    I buy it all the time
    You tell me take it back
    You say you'll take a nap
    But I can see it now
    You always tell me how
    I could do so much better
    You said it in your letter

    Did I make you cry
    on Christmas day?
    Did I let you down
    Like every other day?
    Did I make you cry
    on Christmas day?
    Did I let you down
    On Christmas day?

    The bed that isn't made
    The broken window shade
    The radiator's on
    I loved you along
    But I can see it now
    You always tell me how
    I could do so much better
    You said it in your letter

    I stay awake at night
    After we have a fight
    I'm writing poems about you
    And they aren't very nice
    I didn't mean to yell
    I said I couldn't tell
    I only grabbed your wrist
    Or would you rather we kissed?

    Did I make you cry
    On Christmas day?
    Did I make you cry
    Like every other day?
    Did I make you cry
    On Christmas day?
    Did I make you cry?

    C.... P....

    thank you

  21. T.... S....

    this song smells like gingerbread

  22. y.... c....

    well folks, it's that time of year again

  23. k.... n....

    2017.
    I'll never make you cry again because I'm not there anymore.

  24. H.... T....

    still prefer the peach pit cover

    H.... T....

    Hans Teutschbein the pp cover is just SO peach pit it sounds like a song they'd write

    H.... T....

    One of the few really experimental covers on the internet. Most others are just acoustic versions. The only other very creative cover I can think of is Royal Blood's cover of Pharrell's Happy.

    H.... T....

    Die-hard Sufjan fan here, first time replier. Totally agree Hans, I prefer the Peach Pit cover. However I'm always gonna give more credit to the guy that pumps out 5 Christmas hits a year all in such completely different tones. I think he wanted this to sound borderline happy and depressed and just a mix of emotions. Again, love the Peach Pit cover, but 90% credit goes to the awkward guy in the picture above.

    H.... T....

    peach pit fucking sucks idiot

    H.... T....

    @David Christina that's just like your opinion man

  25. S.... V....

    Yes, Sufjan. You made me cry. Again.
