Space on the Couch for Two
It’s been a long year
So much has happened that we both wish hadn’t
When the snow falls, be it real or faux
All the past will disappear with all the problems
Leave your baggage by the door
I’m so tired of all this rain
I can’t wait to feel like home again
And all that snow, mistletoe
Come on and kiss me baby, let’s fly away
On Christmas Day, won’t you stay?
Let’s turn all those goodbyes into hello
You’re always saying you left the city
But you didn’t leave me
Baby, I was fine to stay behind
I could lie and say I don’t mind
Forget it now, it’s peace on Earth somehow
We’ll fight again on Boxing Day
I’m so tired of all this rain
I can’t wait to feel like home again
And all that snow, mistletoe
Come on and kiss me baby, let’s fly away
On Christmas Day, won’t you stay?
Let’s turn all those goodbyes into hello
In the sparkle of every Christmas light
I see your smile tonight
And I know I’ll hold you soon
I’m just whistling Christmas tunes
And wrapping things for you
I won’t clean the house
But I’ll clean a space on the couch for two
All that snow, mistletoe
Come on and kiss me baby, let’s fly away
On Christmas Day, won’t you stay?
Let’s turn all those goodbyes into hello
All that snow, mistletoe
Come on and kiss me baby, let’s fly away
On Christmas Day, won’t you stay?
Let’s turn all those goodbyes into hello
Let’s turn all those goodbyes into hello
Let’s turn all those goodbyes into hello
Let’s turn all those goodbyes into hello
