Jon Bakke - This Christmas Lyrics

Woke up this morning
Thought it was over
Until I turned on the TV
It's been a bad year
It's been a mad year
The number of reasons
Are clear to see
I had dreams, I had hopes
I saw rivers of gold
Believed nothing
Could stand in my way
I fell to my knees
As my rivers ran dry
But sometimes you fall
Before you can fly

This Christmas, this Christmas
I'm making the most that I can
This Christmas, this Christmas
I can't change the old days
Or foresee the new
But I'm here in this moment
So, Happy Christmas to you

Three days 'til Christmas
I'm shredding my wish list
Cos, baby, it's been cold inside
Walking past Main Street
It's been such a blue streak
But red, green and glitter
Fills my eye
I cursed the bloody sky
And I blamed ill fate
I've wallowed in pity
Stuck in a stalemate
But when I look around me
It's quite confounding
It's not what you're dealt
It's the way that you deal

This Christmas, this Christmas
I'm making the most that I can
This Christmas, this Christmas
I can't change the old days
Or foresee the new
But I'm here in this moment
So, Happy Christmas to you

On this snowy Eve of Christmas
Under the spell of carol singers
My heart fills with crystal clearness
The gift of good delivers

This Christmas, this Christmas
I'm making the most that I can
This Christmas, this Christmas
I can't change the old days
Or foresee the new
But I'm here in this moment
So, Happy Christmas
This Christmas, this Christmas
I'm making the most that I can
This Christmas, this Christmas
I can't change the old days
Or foresee the new
But I'm here in this moment
So, Happy Christmas to you

I'll be damned
I'll be damned
If I let another Christmas
Go to waste
