Wet Christmas
I'm dreaming of a Wet Christmas
Just like the one we had last year
Where the tree tops drip
And children slip
To see grazed knees upon the ground
I'm seeing a wet Christmas
With every sunlit morning rise
Where the wind is howling
And shoppers are scowling
To find that next Black Friday deal
I'm feeling lots of eyesight appointments
With all the screen time that we share
When your eyes are piercing
To see that magic feeling
Of a gift that hopefully will be right
I'm sensing a lot of late nights
Tidying up again and again
Wrapping paper and tinsel
In a house that's warm and special
To feel that feeling that you've lost
