The Downtown Fiction - Forgot It Was Christmas (Bonus Track) lyrics

Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way I wake up, look at the paper And I can't believe the news The shops are closed, the roads are covered And I've got no good excuse Well, I came unprepared But I'll prove that I care I forgot to buy you a present So I wrote this song instead Well, I made it for you Only took me a few 'Cause I wrote it in my head I forgot it was Christmas An empty space below the branches Of a brand new plastic tree Ran down the stairs on Christmas morning But there's nothing there from me So you took off the star And you left me a scar I forgot to buy you a present so I wrote this song instead Well, I made it for you, only took me a few 'Cause I wrote it in my head, I forgot it was Christmas I forgot it was Christmas I'm sorry, it's Christmas Forgot everything on your wish list I promise next year won't be like this Isn't this the time of forgiveness? Can't believe that you dumped me on Christmas Just because I forgot her gift Now I'm marking the spot on the day I forgot Who'd have known it's the twenty-fifth? I forgot it was Christmas I forgot it was Christmas Can't believe that it's Christmas All alone and it's Christmas I forgot it was Christmas
