Christmas Eve (LATA)

lyrics

Let me sing you the song I wrote for you last night
Let’s share an ice-cream down by the seaside
We’ll drink tea when it gets cold and joke about never growing old
Pretend like we’re kids again, tell our friends that it’s no big thing

And at parties I don’t need to hold your hand
Cause I know I’m your girl, and I know I’m your man

We lie in the bath you wash my hair
You take away all of my cares
You light the candles and then you blow them out
You shower me with kisses courtesy of your mouth

I called you up on Christmas Eve
You invited me over to a party at our mutual friend Mikey’s
We made out between two parked cars in a messy moonlit garage
You slowed me down before we got too far you pushed me into a national taxi car

You say “I’ll come over as long as you don’t press”
Funny once we’re in my address I don’t even have to help you get undressed

And you whisper bad things in my ear
That you know that I really like to hear

We lie in the bath you wash my hair
You take away all of my cares
You light the candles and then you blow them out
You shower me with kisses courtesy of your mouth

You light the candles and then you blow them out
Shower me with kisses courtesy of your mouth
