You walk me through the park where all the dark spots are lit by snow
You talk me through my part as if you're starring the show
I hate you 'cause of the way these goddamn snowflakes lick your hair
I hate you 'cause I need you, 'cause I know that you don't care
You remind me I'm no longer young
It's the 20th of Decem - ber, Santa's looking kind of worn
The windows shine like em - bers and every year there's more
I don't think I look much ol - der, but I'm not the one to ask
Nostalgia's getting bold - er with every day that passes
It reminds me I'm no longer young
Back then the streets were paved with light,
As if this town was built by night
And our steps like hyperspace flight,
In a universe that was ours by right
You look at me through len - ses of ideas that were never mine
You're shooting 'cross the tren - ches, in the world war of your mind
You've gone and hit old San - cho between the halo and the eyes
Bet he didn't see it coming just the tunnel and the light
So go away and pray baby, come back when you can cry
It's Christmas time remem - ber, the least you should do is try
The 90's like the weak link in the chain around my heart
The peace I've built within it, it's like an island off the charts
You step in like a tow truck, and tear my world apart,
Yawning like a house cat playing cruelly with the mouse
You're shouting cross the tren - ches to steal my peace of mind
It was you who killed the an - gels, you the greatest lover of all time
You're just a petty thief now, in the universe of small crime
You remind me I'm no longer young
Back then the streets were paved with light,
As if this town was built by night
And our steps like hyperspace flight,
In a universe that was ours by right
