It’s time for the lights
The frost lay heavy seven nights
Time to check my list to send
And to my list I add a friend
The ghost of Christmas 2010
now
It’s time to recall
Eves and Angels, one and all
Shake awake those memories
Of holidays of hollow peace
Of long-forgotten Christmas trees
I’ve known

I know they’re adding up
and it’s autumn
begins an ending you see
So you be you and I’ll be me
obviously
We drove our stake here
All ours to make dear
Snow flying
Years piling
I’m
here
Waiting for you

I’m caught by surprise
As each new spirit waves goodbye
Sad and happy, it’s a trend
And hiding up around the bend
The ghost of Christmas 2010
now
Take my hand
Cuddle close, fire up the band
Say you’ll be with me to see
Our frozen noses when they freeze
And all tomorrows' Christmas trees 
And all tomorrows
