Merry Christmas
(Niall Conn, 2005)

I had half a mind to leave you. You had half a mind to stay
And through all this year we’ve been apart I’ve missed you every day
So you turn up out of nowhere, and expect me just to say,
Merry Christmas. Merry Christmas

We were timeless, lost in motion, no-one, nothing in our way
We kept warm through freezing winters, every night and every day
Bitter winds or frosts of silence couldn’t burn us as we’d say,
Merry Christmas. Merry Christmas

So beneath these lights that make it seem so clear
I’m wondering why the hell I find you standing here
I hear you say this is our special time of year
Another chance for us to say,
Merry Christmas. Merry Christmas

Don’t pull me down
I’m trying hard to stand again
I’ll be around
But I can’t let go

When you left that day, I looked away, I couldn’t watch you go.
Walking arm in arm, you left me only footprints in the snow
One year Older. So, it’s over! But these words were shared, I know
Merry Christmas. Merry Christmas

So beneath these lights that make it seem so clear
I can see the lies beneath this thin veneer
These are not the words I know you’ve come to hear
Is this the last time we’re gonna say,
Merry Christmas?
