No Kiss Under The Mistletoe (Alternative Mix) [B SIDE]

from No Kiss Under The Mistletoe [SINGLE] by The Subway Choir

lyrics

Sittin’ here in my shop doorway
I can hear the church bells ring
And if I try real hard
I think hear some children singing
Christmas comes but once a year
It don’t seem to come around here
The mailman doesn't seem
To leave no Christmas cards for me

The salvation army band starts playing
Across the street from me
Christmas is the same as it ever was
That I can see
Nobody gave me nothing worth giving
But just a smile can make life worth living
I wish you a merry Christmas
If you’ll talk to me

There’s no chimney on my cardboard box
For Santa to come in
No room for decorations on the tree
There ain’t no place for chestnuts roasting
On an open fire
There’s no kiss under the mistletoe for me
No kiss under the mistletoe for me

I close my eyes and I can see presents
Under the tree
Grandma making Christmas pudding
Christmas the way it used to be
Dreamin’ ain’t no way of living
Christmas is a time for giving
Some money in my paper cup
Would mean a lot to me

There’s no chimney on my cardboard box
For Santa to come in
No room for decorations on the tree
There ain’t no place for chestnuts roasting
On an open fire
There’s no kiss under the mistletoe for me
No kiss under the mistletoe for me

My day is made of details
And it can get me down
I go to bed lonely sometimes
But the world is waiting on the edge of town
Gonna meet my buddies
Under the bridge
Build a trash can fire
Maybe share a bottle or two
Sing some carols with the subway choir

Sittin’ here in my shop doorway
I can hear the church bells ring
And if I try real hard
I think hear some children singing
Every cloud has a silver lining
I can see a bright star shining
Maybe I’ll hang my stocking anyway

There’s no chimney on my cardboard box
For Santa to come in
No room for decorations on the tree
There ain’t no place for chestnuts roasting
On an open fire
There’s no kiss under the mistletoe for me
No kiss under the mistletoe for me
