Benjamin Francis Leftwich - Tinsel In The River Lyrics

Benjamin Francis Leftwich Lyrics

"Tinsel In The River"

Around this time last winter
I noticed how you smiled
At the office party dinner
Around colleagues you don't like

Like the glitter ball and music
You decorate the truth
And I guess we fell in love
Cause I'm not that different from you

What a hell of a year
I was all in
Then you disappeared
Snow falls, you're not around
I was getting used to a quiet town
Now here comes Christmas, to tear me down
Now here comes Christmas, to tear me down

Now I'm not one for wishing
On a star so far away
But they've made the city glisten
With lights you can't escape

Well there's tinsel in the river
And the world is on the piss
Still I'd carol sing forever
If you turned up on December 25th

What a hell of a year
I was all in
Then you disappeared
Snow falls, you're not around
I was getting used to a quiet town

What a hell of a time
To have you back on my mind
Took a while but I found
A little piece with you not around
Now here comes Christmas to tear me down
Now here comes Christmas to tear me down
