Christmas Morning

Laura Fygi


The girl 
At the grocery
She's pretty 
And seems nice
But she looks 
Right through me 
With eyes 
Cold as ice
She never answers 
When I ask 
Her name
She only says 
I should have 
A great day

But hey 
What could 
She mean by that
Perhaps 
I'm the fool 
She takes me for
Not anything more

I guess 
It's the season 
The time 
Of the year
When people 
They're happy 
And full 
Of good cheer
Well 
They'll wish you 
And kiss you 
And wish you again
And they'll tell you 
It's peace and good 
Will to all men

But hey what could 
They mean by that
Perhaps 
I'm the fool 
They take me for
Not anything more

We stood 
At the altar 
And you held my hand
And everyone watched 
As the preacher 
He asked
Will you take him 
And love him 
For bad 
And for good
You looked at me 
Then you told him 
You would

But hey 
What did you 
Mean by that
Perhaps 
I'm the fool 
You take me for
Not anything more

Now each 
Christmas morning 
I sit in my chair
And I look up 
At the angels 
That float 
Through the air
Some look down 
Upon me 
Some come 
To my side
And they tell me 
That Jesus 
He said to say hi
