"Crumbs" lyrics

The blinding white of snow so bright
A cozy fire whispers low
With a touch of cheer and holiday delight
Of skiing down the Aspen slopes

Last year around this time
I did a little something, it took me off the nice
While the world stood still and the street was asleep
I heard my body tell me there's a plate by the tree

A trail of crumbs
Got a craving at 3
A trail of crumbs
It was only half eaten
Make no mistake
Wouldn't do such a thing
Now a whole year later
I'm beginning you Santa
Forgive me

I spent eleven months
Not a step out of line
Kept the nicest list
Ready to make things right
It was late, I was weak
This year I'll show you I'm worthy
A Christmas miracle
If I don't leave

A trail of crumbs
Got a craving at 3
A trail of crumbs
It was only half eaten
Make no mistake
Wouldn't do such a thing
Now a whole year later
I'm beginning you Santa
Forgive me

So there I went like once before
Only this time I wasn't alone
I was steps away from that sweet escape
When I met wide-eyes with a familiar face

A sound, a shuffle, a sight so rare (so rare)
Dad with crumbs caught in the midnight air (midnight air)
Silent laughter shared aglow
A secret kept that only we'd know

Ooh
A trail of crumbs
Mmh, mmh, ba da da da da

A trail, a trail of crumbs
Made by two
Cookies that once piled high
No longer in view
