Merry Christmas (I Love You) Lyrics

if god takes you he leaves
a huge footprint of love
and kindness behind
which is where you once stoodand i know you're afraid
to get on the plane
after what happened that day
and selfishly i want you here in my waybut animals come
and animals go
but love is just a laundry line
we hang on untilwe're dried out by the sun
and when you think your turn is done
you end up getting dirty
and it's all again begunnow words i think are just
a noisy dirty wind
makes the trouble we get in
so why do we speaknow we made another war
that's what men are good for
men with stupid insecurities

not a lot moreand satisfied they try
its written about again
but who the hell reads history?
apparently not mencause nothing's guaranteed
except the politics of need
did the romans see the ship go down
or were they asleep?i shouldn't expect to live
and i shouldn't expect to die
but i wouldnt mind being beside you, dear
on that laundry line to dryand for my grandma and brother
my father and my mother
and you my sweetest lover
to you all i will saymerry christmas i love you
and god is above you
merry christmas i love you
and god is above youmerry christmas i love you
