lyrics

That Time of the Year

Intro
The sound of your voice,
Brings me a kind of joy.
I just can't get my head around it.
I was feeling out of sorts,
So I thought that I would call.
And tell you, and spell you, and say…
I haven't got that far, but I'm sure that it'll be great.

Verse 1
Combining all my Christmases,
And sending you my cheer.
And I'm hoping it'll give you,
A smile from ear to ear.
So you'll pick up the phone and dial,
Your friend in London,
Who's been living there for a while.
And you'll discuss the weather and the Olympics.
And the next time you'll be together.
La, la, la, la, la.

Verse 2
Don't tell me you miss me, don't you dare.
Don't you stop, mid-sentence, to declare.
Don't you tell me you wish you were here.
Don't you tell me that you need me.
Cause the real reason, is cause I just cooked brownies.

Chorus
And it’s that time of the year, where I take your word for it.
Where I take your word for it.
And I've been wishing on a dream.
Wishing I could be.
Wishing I could see.
So let's pick it up where we left off.

Verse 3
I've put my foot in my mouth, too many time's to count.
Please don't leave me with the benefit of the doubt.
Tripping up and down those broken lanes,
Trying to communicate.
For this, (for this), for us, (for us).
For wishing upon a star.

Chorus
Bridge
Scream it out! Wave your flag proud!
Tell me all the jokes you know I promise I'm not slow,
on the up take. I'm not a downgrade.
Please, please don't go.
Sewing patches on all the things I own.
Making sure, ain't taken for, granted in your score.
It's that time of the year.

Chorus
