Splitting Up Christmas Lyrics


So what if it's freezing? I'm awake and I'm happy
The sun's steepling its shards on my floor
I drag my feet to the shower and I hear someone singing
I keep the lights off while the water gets warmNow I knot up my tie and toss books in a schoolbag
They keep my priorities straight
So I can sleepwalk through work like an outpatient program
I don't buy but get through anywayAnd at some point I'll call you and tell you I miss you
And you are the point of my day
And my face will get flushed and my throat will choke up
When you tell me that you feel the sameSo I have been thinking of splitting up Christmas
To see everyone I'd like to see
And you're first on that list, you're the lotto I hit
You're the star at the top of the tree
You're the star at the top of the treeSo I have been thinking of splitting up Christmas
To see everyone I'd like to see
And you're first on that list, you're the lotto I hit
You're the star at the top of the treeAnd I have been feeling this good for a reason
My friends and my family, yeah, you all are my backbone

Keep me balanced and settled
And I'm in debt to you all endlessly, yeah
I'm in debt to you all endlesslySo tonight I will call you and try to say thank you
For being the sun on my face
I know the world's almost over but you make it seem better
And I hope for you I do the same

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
