A brass band turned up in my studio so I said "Okay, let's do a song". It went something like that anyway. Then again, perhaps it didn't. Who knows anything for sure?
Lyrics
Falling snow, mistletoe, tinsel on the tree
starry nights and Christmas lights don't mean that much to me
the nights are cold, the stores are sold out, better check eBay
and don't you know the radio is jingling all the way
I don't dream of presents wrapped up just for me
I can live without a twinkling Christmas tree
I don't care too much for Santa and his sleigh
as long as I have you on Christmas day
I don't need the snow, it just gets in the way
as long as I have you on Christmas day
All of those who hope it snows can have it all to keep
I just aspire to stoke the fire and hold you while you sleep
Chrismas cards are way too hard, wrapping presents too
let the rest have all that mess, I'd rather unwrap you
I don't dream of presents wrapped up just for me
I can live without a twinkling Christmas tree
I don't care too much for Santa and his sleigh
as long as I have you on Christmas day
I don't need the snow, it just gets in the way
as long as I have you on Christmas day
