"Merry Christmas (Wherever You Are)" lyrics

Footprints in the snow
We're drunk and singing carols walking home
Arm in arm with noses numb from cold
Houses shining bright
They're dressed from head to toe in coloured lights
To chase away the darkest night

Whether it's spent with family or friends
Or getting drunk alone again
Lunch at home or dawn the pub
Takeaway or homemade grub
Everybody spread some cheer
My favourite time of year is here

I hope that you get everything on your list
I'm wishing you the merriest christmas
Wherever you are

Beneath the moon and stars
We're making snowballs with snow from roofs of cars
Throwing them at people leaving bars
We run as they give chase
The wind like little daggers in my face
Slipping and sliding all over the place

Whether it's spent with family or friends
Or getting drunk alone again
Lunch at home or dawn the pub
Takeaway or homemade grub
Everybody spread some cheer
My favourite time of year is here

I hope that you get everything on your list
I'm wishing you the merriest christmas
Wherever you are

I hope that you get everything on your list
I'm wishing you the merriest christmas
Wherever you are

I hope that you get everything on your list
I'm wishing you the merriest christmas
Wherever you are
