Wish List

Mama's telling me to slow my roll But we were young and dumb and so in love I remember when I saw you first Alley Katz December 21st Your smile really had me feeling right As Christmas lights reflected from your eyes Hands laced together on Cary Street The snow is soaking through the Vans on my feet Despite it being 32 degrees You light a fire in my bones When I hear you speak Last Christmas I gave you my heart I played on a mixtape as we drove in your car And this year the distance is clear It turns out you're nothing special Your beauty used to leave a glare Like snowflakes falling in your hair Our matching stockings no longer hung with care The needles fall from the tree St. Nick set me up to believe If I stayed faithful to you You would be everything I would need Under the tree So next year when you go downstairs Don't expect me to be standing there Last Christmas I gave you my heart I played on a mixtape as we drove in your car And this year the distance is clear It turns out you're nothing special You're dying to know if you ruined Christmas Well put it on your wish list
