Last week, myself and @theluxalma were overcome with festive feelings and wrote this song at @hibernacle20 . Hold on to your Sleigh Bells! ‘Tis the season.
It really breaks my heart to see a dear old friend Go down to the worn out place again Do you know the sound Of a closing door Have you heard that sound before Do you wonder if she knows you anymore I wrapped your love around me like a chain But I never was afraid that it would die You can dance in a hurricane But only if you’re standing in the eye Where did you learn to walk Where did you learn to run Away from everything you loved Did you think the bottle Would ever ease your pain Did you think that love’s a foolish game Did you find someone else to take the blame I wrapped your love around me like a chain But I never was afraid that it would die You can dance in a hurricane But only if you’re standing in the eye You can dance in a hurricane But only if you’re standing in the eye I am a sturdy soul And there ain’t no shame In lying down in the bed you made Can you fight the urge to run for another day You might make it further if you learn to stay I wrapped your love around me like a chain But I never was afraid that it would die You can dance in a hurricane But only if you’re standing in the eye You can dance in a hurricane But only if you’re standing in the eye
Some people live for the fortune Some people live just for the fame Some people live for the power, yeah Some people live just to play the game
Some people think That the physical things Define what’s within And I’ve been there before That life’s a bore So full of the superficial
Some people want it all But I don’t want nothing at all If it ain’t you, baby If I ain’t got you, baby Some people want diamond rings Some just want everything But everything means nothing If I ain’t got you, yeah
Some people search for a fountain Promises forever young Some people need three dozen roses And that’s the only way to prove you love them
Hand me the world on a silver platter And what good would it be With no one to share, with no one who truly cares for me
Some people want it all But I don’t want nothing at all If it ain’t you, baby If I ain’t got you, baby Some people want diamond rings Some just want everything But everything means nothing If I ain’t got you, you, you
Some people want it all But I don’t want nothing at all If it ain’t you, baby If I ain’t got you, baby Some people want diamond rings Some just want everything But everything means nothing If I ain’t got you, yeah
If I ain’t got you with me, baby, oh, ooh Said nothing in this whole wide world don’t mean a thing If I ain’t got you with me, baby
