"Always Winter But Never Christmas"

Always winter but never christmasYou won't open your box or kiss under thisHow can I let you know?
Always easter but never egg givingCrucify me, I just don't call this livingHow can I let you know?
Can't you hear the bells ringing out? Can't you hear the fishmongers shout? That the way to live is celebrate and giveStop it being, always winter but never christmas
Always ageing but never birthdayTold your last joke and threw your mirth awayOh how can I let you know? Always turkey time, never thanksgivingShare some gold out, but don't just sit there sieving
How can I let you know?

Can't you read the words upon the wall? Can't you hear the butcher boy's call? That we need to share, love between each pairStop it being, always winter but never christmas
I'd unwrap you if you'd only step down from your treeFrom your present, into some undone future with me
Always winter but never christmasAlways thatmas but never thismasOh how can I let you know?
Can't you hear the bells ringing out? Can't you hear the fishmongers shout? That the way to live is celebrate and giveThat we need to share, love between each pairWarm it upAlways winter but never christmas
