CHRISTMAS PAST
(C) 2007 MITCH TOWNLEY
Vocals: Scott Word

(V1)
I SAT AT THE COUNTER OF THE TURNPIKE DINER
SILENT NIGHT WAS PLAYING ON THE RADIO.
WAS THE YEARLY MEETIN' OF THE EAGLETON LONELIES
WHERE WE SWAP DUSTY STORIES OF GOOD TIMES WE'D KNOWN
LOUISE, THE WAITRESS SAW MY CUP WAS EMPTY
ASKED, �WHAT YA NEEDIN'" AND SO I SAID�

(CHORUS)
DECEMBER MEM�RIES AND MAKE �EM LAST
FILL IT ON UP WITH SOME WARM CHRISTMAS PAST.
I WON�T SAY �WHEN� JUST LET IT OVERFLOW
WITH FAMILY, FRIENDS, AND FRESH WINTER SNOW.
OFF KEY CAROLS SUNG AROUND A FIRE
SOUNDING LIKE A HEAVENLY CHOIR
I�M HEARING ANGELS , OH, LET �EM SING
OF A CHRISTMAS PAST, I�M REMEMBERING.

(V2)
A STRESSED OUT DAD CAME IN FOR DIRECTIONS,
WAS DIZZY FROM DRIVING THROUGH THE HO-HO-HO
GOT LOST SOMEWHERE LEFT OF BEST BUY AND TARGET
WAS ON A MISSION HAD MORE STORES TO GO
TOLD HIM, TAKE A LOAD OFF, I�VE GOT WHAT YOU�RE NEEDIN�
WINKED AT LOUISE 'N SAID, �THIS ROUND�S ON ME��

(REPEAT CHORUS)

BRIDGE :
SON, DON'T YOU WAIT TILL IT�S CHRISTMAS EVE,
TO FIND OUT THE BEST GIFTS AREN�T UNDER A TREE,
THEY�RE WRAPPED UP IN YOUR MEMORIES
DON�T LET THIS SEASON PASS WITHOUT ASSEMBLING

(REPEAT CHORUS)

IT�S CHRISTMAS PAST, YOU�RE REMEMBERING
