12 hour xmas

angie fights crime

from the christmas album “noel”

today is the day, it’s christmas eve morning
get out of bed and pack up some clothes
laod up the car with everyone’s presents
a double espresso a cinamon roll
one side of the state and drive to the other
the family awaits but mostly my mother
five hours to get there and five to return
i’ll never learn
12 hour christmas, but we just got here
12 hour christmas, every year
12 hour christmas, soon we’ll be going
12 hour christmas, don’t take this wrong
heaven knows, i love you with all my heart
but heaven knows, i just cannot stay
one more day
good food awaits and covers the table
good cheer and good times and none of that fable
six hours have passed and six more to go
oh god i know
12 hour christmas, but we just got here
12 hour christmas, every year
12 hour christmas, soon we’ll be going
12 hour christmas, don’t take this wrong
heaven knows, i love you with all my heart
but heaven knows, i just cannot stay
one more day
today is the day, it’s christmas day morning
get out of bed and run to the tree
open a dew and hand out the presents
smiles all around from everyone but me
12 hour christmas, but we just got here
12 hour christmas, every year
12 hour christmas, soon we’ll be going
12 hour christmas, don’t take this wrong
heaven knows, i love you with all my heart,
but heaven knows, i just cannot stay
one more day
