lyrics

Despite the calendar, I'm still unconvinced
I need a record of the months that I've missed
There's sand on my Christmas list

I'm in denial and nobody could teach
How could December seem so far out of reach
I think I'm still on the beach

Christmas already? Wasn't it just July?
There's fireworks still decorating the sky
I've got some presents to buy

Saturday
Everyone will come over
The spirit that's missing will return when we're kissing
Where's the mistletoe?
Do we really need to know?
(no)

Christmas already? I'm still living in June
Is there a lifeguard gonna rescue me soon
I've got some shopping to do

So many languages we have to learn
Many greetings to return
Sunrises, sunsets
A world of greetings to return
Many languages to learn
The knowing nods and smiles of holidays on which we turn

See the children ice skate across the water
Skating's great on an open lake
I got my hand in the hand of my favorite date
See the children ice skate around the world

Christmas already? Can you give me a lift?
I reckon I should hit the shops for some gifts
Before it's December 25th

Every day
There's a want to be closer
The spirit of giving hits you sure as you're living
Now I got to go
The stores are closing in an hour or so.
