[00:49.86] Cause it's my favourite holiday.
[00:52.05] But all this year's been busy blur.Don't think I have the energy.
[00:56.07] To add to my already mad rush. Just because it is the season.
[01:00.27] The perfect gift for me would be completion and connections.
[01:04.02] Left from last year, world tour aeroplanes and babies.
[01:08.70] Had his number but never the time.
[01:10.71] Most of '98 passed along those lines.
[01:12.57] So deck those halls, trim those trees.
[01:14.94] Raise up cups of christmas cheer. Ijust need to catch my breath.
[01:19.02] Christmas with my mates this year.
[01:28.98] Calendar picture, frozen landscape chilled this room for 24 days.
[01:33.12] Evergreens, sparkling snow, get this winter over with!
[01:36.45] Flashback to spring time, saw him again
[01:39.36] Would've been good to go for lunch
[01:41.37] Couldn't agree when we were both free
[01:43.20] We tried , we said we'd keep in touch
[01:45.48] Didn't of course, 'Til the summertime out to the beach to his boat.
[01:48.96] Could I join him. No. This time it was me.
[01:51.72] Sunburn in the third degree. Now the calendar's just one page.
[01:55.80] And, of course , I am excited.
[01:57.87] Tonight"s the night, but I've set my mind. Not to do too much about it.
[02:00.57] Merry Christmas! Merry Christmas! But I think I'll miss this one this year.

[02:45.60] Hardly dashing through the snow. Cos I bundled up too tight.
[02:49.62] Last minute have-to-dos. A few cards. A few calls.
[02:53.19] Because it's R.S.V.P. No thanks, no party lights.
[02:57.87] It's christmas eve, gonna relax. Turned down all of my invites.
[03:02.16] Last fall I had a night to myself. Same guy called. Halloween party.
[03:06.30] Waited all night for him to show. This time his card wouldn't go.
[03:10.11] Forget it , it's cold it's getting late. Trudge on home to celebrate.
[03:14.40] In a quiet way , unwind, doing christmas right this time.
[03:18.51] Merry Christmas! Merry Christmas! But I think I'll miss this one this year.
[03:23.88] Merry Christmas! Merry Christmas! But I think I'll miss this one this year.
[03:27.36] Tesco has provided me, with the world's smallest turkey.
[03:30.99] All in the oven, nice and hot. Oh damn, guess what I forgot?
[03:34.59] So on with the boots, back out in the snow to the only all night garage.
[03:38.73] When what to my wandering eyes should appear.
[03:40.77] In the line is that guy I've been chasing all year.
[03:43.17] Spending this one alone, he said. Need a break, this years been crazy.
[03:47.04] I said, me to, but why are you? You mean you forgot the papers too?
[03:51.18] Then suddenly we laughed and laughed
[03:53.22] Caught on to what was happening.
[03:55.53] Christmas magic's brought this tale to a very happy ending.
[04:27.93] Merry Christmas! Merry Christmas! But I think I'll miss this one this year.
