christmas eve can kill you - mark lanegan lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
the winter’s flaking snow is brushing through the pine wood trees
i stuck my hands down deep inside my coat
i think of years ago and half remembered christmas trees
and faces that still warm me with their glow

[verse 2]
the cold and empty evening hangs around me like a ghost
i listen to my footsteps in the snow
the sound of one man walking through the snow can break your heart
but stopping doesn’t help, so on i’ll go

[refrain 1]
and christmas eve can k!ll you
when you’re trying to hitch a ride to anywhere

[verse 3]
the icy air i’m breathing’s all that keeps me on my feet
i feel like i’ve been walking all my life
a car goes running by, the man don’t even turn his head
guess he’s busy being santa claus tonight

[verse 4]
the saddest part of all is knowing if i switched with him
i’d leave him stumbling ragged by the road
i’d ride that highway to arms of my sweet family
and forget about the stranger in the cold
[refrain 2]
and christmas eve can k!ll you
when you’re trying to hitch a ride to anywhere

[verse 5]
and as i walk i’m singing to myself “o silent night”
hoping i can save those other souls
oh, god, forgive the man that drives right by the other man
have pity on the stranger in the cold

[refrain 3]
cause christmas eve can k!ll you
when you’re trying to hitch a ride to anywhere
