I don’t want to remember the way that you held me When I was your baby, wrapped me up and kept me warm I’m still dancing to tapes that keep playing in my head while Snow falls and lights flicker red like I’m frozen in last winter’s bed
So I’m sitting Drowning my sorrows in liquids Sting when you sit and they hit quick And take me where I need to go
Now it’s a Blackout Christmas So I don’t have to miss you There’s no hoping, no wishing That you’ll come home Stumbling around the kitchen Crying and breaking dishes I would give anything for You to come home
I spent the whole year waiting for you to call my name and Tell me you’re sorry for the way you broke my heart when you didn’t
Now it’s a Blackout Christmas So I don’t have to miss you There’s no hoping, no wishing That you’ll come home
