Postcard17 December lyrics;
All the stories that December had to say,
Do you remember?
I, I know it's been quite a long while,
We've been there.
Now sing it with me,
Take me back to my home,
Freeze my fingers and time,
Feel the warmth of your arms,
And the same with your lips.
We grew a little older,
Bound to stay sober,
Miss the way we were drugged,
In the cold of the night.
All the stories thess trees remind us,
When the winds blow.
Yea, how we love to crawl into a shell,
And sleep on corridors,
But not in our rooms.
Take me back to my home,
Freeze my fingers and time,
Feel the warmth of your arms,
And the same with your lips.
We grew a little older,
Bound to stay sober,
Miss the way we were drugged,
In the cold of the night.
I got something to say,
I got something to say,
If it's December what we crave,
Is it far from our reach.
I got something to say,
I got something to say,
Can we run up to a hilltop,
And feel it all again..
All the stories that December had to say,
Do you remember?
If I stay would you stay,
Till the next winter,
We'll grow older and older,
Don't be sober than this,
Tell me if you had to,
Choose that time of the year
To go back in time ..

How easily we get disconnected from our close ones in the race to 'be connected' to the world through Smartphones!
