Lyrics This Time of Year - Skagarack

This Time of Year

There’s no other night
With half the emotion
There’s no other time
All through the year
You can’t just leave it out
You can’t ignore it
It’s all over you
Everywhere you go
We see it coming with different eyes
The poor men and the lonely just try to survive
They just can’t believe it’s already here
This time of year
All the kids can’t wait, it took forever
Santa needs a break in the local store
Plastic lights are on, the city is on fire
cradles fly around in sweet harmony
There are places in this world
Where fathers shoot each other and mothers shed tears
And I wonder how the children must feel
This time of the year
And there’s no false doubt as I’m walking around
With a million thoughts on my mind
But I know tonight it’ll all be alright
When my love walks safe by my side
There’s no other night
With half the emotion
There’s no other time
All through the year
We see it coming through different eyes, yeah
The poor man and the lonely just try to survive
They just can’t believe it’s already here
Lovers hug each other and those they have dear
They just can’t believe it’s already here
This time of year
This time of year
Different eyes
