Holiday for Two

Busy city streets, with the lights hung in the air

That time of the year, people running everywhere

I can hear them ring, all the phones across the land

Calling us to dinner plans, cold feet and gift in hand

Let's get in the car

And turn up the radio

Sing along, and here we go

Now it's only me and you

Find the simple joy

Of a burning fireplace

We can skip the Christmas race

And have a Holiday for two

On a tv screen, people dancing happily

Around a Christmas tree, with friends and family

I can see no end to the list of things to make

Promises to break, and smiles I have to fake

We can watch the fire grow — and outside the falling snow

Now it's only me and you — and a Holiday for two
