Aly & Aj - Not This Year lyrics

This Christmas card is contrived A mannequin looks more alive Haven't meant a word I've written here The page is full not one thing sincere I can't, I can't I can't, I can't take it This is the time to smile, I can't fake it Please allow me the chance now To break it down It's not snow, It's rain coming down And the lights are cool, But they burn out And I can't pull off the cheer Not this year Not this year Not this year When I look into the mirror No happiness is present here Not supposed to whine, Not supposed to cry Try to hold it in, but not this time I can't, I can't I can't, I can't take it This is the time to smile, I can't fake it Please allow me the chance now To break it down It's not snow, It's rain coming down And the lights are cool, But they burn out And I can't pull off the cheer Not this year Not this year Not this year Don't know, don't know If you can hear me I will, I will Speak louder for you No more whispering Are you listening I am pleading I am pleading I can't, I can't I can't, I can't take it This is the time to smile, I can't fake it Please allow me the chance now To break it down It's not snow, It's rain coming down And the lights are cool, But they burn out And I can't pull off the cheer Not this year Not this year Not this year I can't, I can't It's not snow, It's rain coming down And the lights are cool, But they burn out And I can't pull off the cheer Not this year Not this year Not this year Not this year
