Christmas With You

I used to work for a jewelry store
And deliver cross town to every shopping mall
Listen to the singers outside of the door
On the corner

Where luminara candles in white paper bags
Lit the street and all the people in and out of the cabs
I'd never wanna go home for all that I had
Those were the good times

Now every fall it starts to take me back
To the love that I lost or love that I'd forget
When they'd ask me do I believe
Now I believe I'll be headed home
This Christmas Eve

Frost on the window
Howling steam from the kettle
Listening to Nat King Cole
With a seasonal beer and some pretzels

Old decorations when red ranger came calling
On comic book wrapping paper
And cloves and mandarin pomander
Still remind me

Of untangling tinsel or having me
Hang popcorn and cranberries around the tree
Got me feeling sappy and blue
Now I'll be headed home to spend Christmas with you

And just like hooves on the roof
I'll be breaking off and on through the traffic
To spend Christmas with you
Til I'm dashing over reunion lights
To spend Christmas with you
