"You're Like Christmas" lyrics

You're like Christmas
And the trees that we never just could
You're all the birthdays
That we couldn't afford any candles
You're the flowers we picked from 'round town
And the way we wore hand me downs
The nights that we slept in the car
I thought we were just having fun
Mmm

We weren't the rich kids on the block
But everyone they used to stay at our house
The roof might have leaked just a lot but
It's never what we cared about
Where's our boys knowing right from wrong?
For all the girls that want to make a good mum
It's only when the river runs dry
Do we see all that money can't buy
Mmm

'Cause you are
You are like the sun in the holidays
And you are you are
The one that always made me feel safe
'Cause you are you are
The good when the going gets tough
And you're everything that money can't buy
You got to know that it's more than enough

Mumma you don't worry no more
We're going to help put food on the table
And father you don't worry no more
From now on it isn't just on you
16 when I got a guitar
And I didn't know it was going to go take me so far
It's only when the river runs dry
Do we see all that money can't buy

You are you are
Like the sun in the holidays
You are you are
The one that always made me feel safe
You are you are
The good when the going gets tough
You're everything that money can't buy
You got to know that it's more than enough

You're everything that money can't buy
You got to know that it's more than enough
You're everything that money can't buy
You got to know that it's more than enough

You're everything that money can't buy
You got to know that it's more than enough
