about

Christmas single 2019.

lyrics

When your eyes are just the memory of the things that you once saw
And your heart is just a shadow of the love that you once wore
In the wind that blows across the sea and the August glow on falling leaves
We’ve become the history of a moment and a dream

So lightly, nightly glances pass through a darkened room
The only sound of leaving is the passing of the moon
And the sun will rise to fill the skies with the light we all can see
And the sparrow calls to wake the world and you realise your dreams

Remember watching fires burn inside my living room?
When nobody was somebody and somebody was you
Painting blue the walls that crawl around the place I sleep
Now close the curtains on history and let us dream sweet dreams

Now through all the mess I found the best and only place to be
Is by your side and on your mind and in your company
We’ve sorted through the past and pain the dead white roses were not in vain
But none of that matters cos I think we’ll be ok

Did we wait too long for the summer?
Were we just too hard on each other?
Did our hearts grow cold in the winter?
I know I’ll never forget you.
