about

This is a very rough Christmas song, written and recorded in four hours for the festive special Prompt Jam. Its inspired by self-reflection and the yearly tradition of seeing family.

lyrics

Can you hear the crackling of the air?
Can you see the melting of the frost we sometimes share?
Darker though the nights may be, the bright lights of the Christmas tree
Light the warmer smiles of strangers everywhere

Have you ever wished upon a star?
Have you ever gazed into the sky of lights bizzare?
And picked one as your favourite, took just a sec to savour it
And asked it for something you've lacked thus far

Come home and give your mum a hug
Share a record with you father, turn the lounge into a snug
And laugh at the dog in his Christmas costume~

Have you ever come in from the cold?
Wrapped yourself beside the fire with a sweet hot drink to hold
To thaw your bitter fingertips and steam the softness to your lips
And feel the glow of slowly growing old

Who do you remember at this time?
As your freinds are with their families and drinking warmed up wine
To those who have shared christmasses and made it to my gifting list
I love you and I hope you're doing fine

Come home and give your mum a hug
Share a record with your father turn the lounge into a snug
And laugh at the dog in his Christmas costume

I wonder who I'll share it with next year?
Will I be a newcomer or will I still be here?
The gifts I give and gave away are just a different way to say
I love you and I hope you love me to
And I think that I know you
