Christmas Anyway

There was snow from here to Boston And everything was closed But we packed our bags and headed Out to the airport anyway Two years since we did this Two years without the fight Two years without the endless game Of trying to get it right Nothing is the same, and nothing can be I'll never understand you And you'll never understand me So place the star atop the tree And hope it makes us happy Let's hide it all, and deck the hall We're having Christmas anyway We dress up in our best, for the parade And watch the years float by Along with all the plans they made Stuck in this same town, just slowly growing old We were never one of them, you know We will never come in from the cold You always place yourself above me No Christian charity will make you love me So drink another toast tonight And hope that we can make it right Let's all pretend we will be friends And let's have Christmas anyway Boxing day arrives, We're headed home now The sky is gray, the air is cold And we got through it somehow Right before we left, you turn to hold me I let myself fall into you I let your love inform me Nothing is the same, and nothing can be I'll never understand you, and you'll never understand me But when it's late on Christmas night And we turn out the Christmas lights Despite it all I'm bound to fall I'm glad we're having Christmas anyway Yeah, I'm glad were having Christmas anyway I'm glad were having Christmas anyway We're having Christmas anyway We're having Christmas anyway We're having Christmas anyway We're having Christmas anyway We're having Christmas anyway We're having Christmas anyway
