You opened the door for me
And said you'd make me something to eat
I hugged my knees in your armchair
And I stared at the wall
I could hear you in the kitchen
Bumping into things
Maybe it's not such a lousy world after all
Maybe it's not such a lousy world after all
I pretend that I'm asleep
Because I'm scared you'll make me leave
You turn out the lights and you disappear
At the end of the hall
The Christmas tree glows blearily
Like a nightlight by my head
Maybe it's not such a rotten holiday after all
Maybe it's not such a rotten holiday after all
Maybe it's not such a rotten holiday after all
