Another L.A. Christmas
"Another L.A. Christmas"
By Matt Ellis
All the families packing up, they're heading back out East
Lights are goin' out all up and down the street
Everybody's heading home from where the children grow
It's another LA Christmas, just you and me alone
Decorated trees sit in the empty homes
We'll have the streets all to ourselves with nowhere left to go
Another LA Christmas coming, now the cities slowing down
Just you and me and Christmas in this little beach side town.
When we gonna know if what we're doing's right
Still living here, another year gone
Will it ever snow here on our Christmas night
Here's to wishing' it's our last this far from home
Some time ago you said to me, why don't we pack it in
But honey can't you see it's aways starting to begin
This time next year at Christmas we'll be swimming in the sun
All this California dreaming's gonna get us home for one
And then we're gonna know that what we're doing's right
Still living here, another year gone
Will it ever snow here on our Christmas night
Here's to wishing' it's our last this far from home
So far from home. So far alone.
So far from home. So far alone.
