SOON AFTER CHRISTMAS

I've called you now a thousand times I think I know now You're not home I've said your name a thousand times To be prepared if you'd be there I wanted so to have you And I wanted you to know I wanted to write songs About how we're walking in the snow You've got me slightly disappointed Just a bit and just enough To keep me up another night Waiting for another day The city's taking a day off The streets are empty No one's out tonight My life is in another's hands I wanted so to have you And I wanted you to know I wanted to write songs About how we're walking in the snow But there's no snow this winter There's no words for what I feel for you It's not enough Though it's too much Why must it always be like that? The TV screen is lighting up my room The film has ended Every inch of my skin is crying for your hands And I wanted so to have you And I wanted you to know I wanted to write songs About how we're walking in the snow You've got me slightly disappointed Just a bit and just enough To keep me up another night Waiting for another day
