Christmas lights




















Christmas night, another fight
Tears we cried, a flood
Got all kinds of poison in, poison in my blood

I took my feet to Oxford street
Trying to right a wrong
'Just walk away', those windows say, but I can't believe she's gone

When you're still waiting for the snow to fall
It doesn't really feel like Christmas at all

Up above candles on air flicker
Oh they flicker and they flow
And I am up here holding on to all those chandliers of hope

And like some drunken Elvis singing
I go singing out of tune
Singing how I've always loved you, darling, and I always will

Oh when you're still waiting for the snow to fall
It doesn't really feel like Christmas at all
Still waiting for the snow to fall
It doesn't really feel like Christmas at all





















Those Christmas lights light up the street
Down where the sea and city meet
May all your troubles soon be gone
Oh Christmas lights, keep shining on

Oh Christmas lights light up the street
Light up the fireworks in me
May all your troubles soon be gone
Those Christmas lights keep shining on


Lyrics: Coldplay

Beast of the dark

As soon as the sun shines down it changes all things In the dark and blue shadows you are a beast Hunting on the imaginaries that try to take our minds Sending them back while barking their lust into fear Your eyes turn from black and wild into yellow and full of hope Praising the lights for their return and searching beneath the ground in my sight And yes I know you will always be free and of the dark but you won't lose me

Familiar curiosity

Can I just comment on those blue eyes that are looking at me, tell me what you see You seem so new, like someone I just met but with familiar curiosity And while I am still wondering who I am I'm knowing you some more, just bit by bit 'Cause from my view, the place where I now stand I'm wondering, but more hoping that we fit So, honey, do you find that word okay? 'Cause I think it's a quite nice word to say
