Lyrics

Hello there Christmas eve, the stains set on my feet Curled up in my wounds, the snow comes down in flumes Surely you would know, a light under the snow A handles frozen fate, a lovers lonely sleigh And you could see me walking, and I'll never turn around They said I'm a clown, a Christmas clown Bags over my shoes, my scarf's in tattered twos The hum beneath the lights, where I held you Christmas night A family seated there, I won't what I always fear My grandma used to say, it's good on Christmas eve But surprise I'm always talking talking and never listening You think I'm a flea, a Christmas flea I could smell the snow, under the slope of my red nose These new clothes made me a man, but the time carved up my hands So I strive off in the night, another Christmas won't be right And when we meet under the lights, just promise to drive on by Cause I was only stopping by for a little while in your life Oh Christmas tonight, Christmas tonight So we turned upside down, in the lifeboat we have found And you tucked away the sails, and I feel back down the stairs But that was my last Christmas and I'll lay right here on the ground Oh you think I'm a clown, the Christmas clown
