Lyrics Another Lonely Christmas - Prince And The Revolution

Another Lonely Christmas

Last night, I spent another lonely Christmas
Darlin', darlin', U should’ve been there
'Cuz, all the 1's I dream about
u r the one that makes my love shout
u c, u r the only 1 I cared 4
Remember the time we swam naked
In ur father’s pool?
Boy, he was upset that night
But boy, was that ever cool
Remember that night we played pokeno 4 money
And u robbed me blind?
Remember how u used 2 scream so loud
'Cuz, u, u hated that number 9?
Hey, I saw ur sister skatin' on the lake
This afternoon
Good heaven, how she’s grown
She swoons the boy skaters, she’s so tall
But of all ur father’s children
All ur father’s children, baby
u know, u r the finest of them all
u r brighter than the northern star
And I, last night, I spent another lonely Christmas
Darlin', darlin', u, u should’ve been there
u see, of all the 1's I dream about
u r the 1 that makes my love shout
u c, u r the only 1 I cared 4, listen
Do u still like banana daiquiris, boy we used 2 get so tight
Ooh u used 2 get so horny, u’d make me leave the lights on
I’d pay money just 2 c ur happy dancing silhouette upon the pier
Sometimes I think I hear u smiling
Sometimes I think ur here
I find myself holding every pillow in the bed u and I used 2 share
Last night I spent another lonely christmas
Darling u should be u should be here cause u see
Last night I spent another lonely Christmas darling darling u yeah u should’ve
been there cause u c
of all the 1's I dream about
u r the 1 that makes my love shout u c
u r the only 1 I cared 4 yeah
My mama used to say, always trust your lover
But now, I guess that only applies 2 her
'Cuz, baby, you promised me
Baby, u promised me, u’d never leave
Then u died on the 25th day of December, oh, baby
Last night, oh, I spent another lonely, lonely Christmas
Darlin', baby, u, u should’ve been there, oh, oh
'Cuz all the ones I dream about
u r the 1 that makes my love shout
u see, u r the only 1 I care 4, yeah
ur father said it was pneumonia
ur mother said it was stress
But the doctor said u were dead
And I, I say it’s senseless
Every Christmas night 4 7 years now
I drink banana daiquiris till I’m blind
As long as I can hear u smilin', baby
u won’t hear my tears
Another lonely Christmas is mine
Yeah, mine, yeah
Another lonely Christmas is mine
Last night, yeah, I spent another lonely, lonely Christmas
Darlin', darlin', u should’ve been there, yeah
'Cuz all the 1's I dream about
u r the 1 that makes my love shout
u see, u r the only 1 I care 4
Another Lonely Christmas ooh
