Christmas Lights
Illuminating Christmas Desires
Lyrics
Christmas night, another fight
Reflecting on a Christmas night filled with conflict
Tears we cried, a flood
Describing the intensity of emotions with tears
Got all kinds of poison in
Acknowledging the presence of negativity or toxic elements
Of poison in my blood
Expressing the impact of negativity on the speaker's well-being
I took my feet
Narrating a visit to Oxford Street, possibly seeking solace
To Oxford Street
Trying to correct a mistake or make amends
Trying to right a wrong
Referencing advice from windows to "walk away"
"Just walk away" those windows say
Expressing disbelief at the absence or departure of someone
But I can't believe you're gone
Continuing to wait for a significant event (snowfall)
When you're still waiting for the snow to fall
Waiting for the snow to fall as a symbol of Christmas
Doesn't really feel like Christmas at all
Feeling a lack of Christmas spirit or joy
Up above candles on air flicker
Observing flickering candles, symbolizing fragility
Oh, they flicker and they float
Highlighting the delicate and uncertain nature of hope
But I'm up here holding on
Struggling to hold on to hopeful moments
To all those chandeliers of hope
Mentioning chandeliers as symbols of aspirations
Like some drunken Elvis singing
Comparing oneself to a flawed Elvis, possibly regretful
I go singing out of tune
Singing out of tune signifies vulnerability or imperfection
Saying how I always loved you, darling
Expressing enduring love despite imperfections
And I always will
Oh, when you're still waiting for the snow to fall
Continuing to wait for the symbolic snowfall
Doesn't really feel like Christmas at all
Reiterating the lack of a festive atmosphere
Still waiting for the snow to fall
Still anticipating the meaningful event of snowfall
It doesn't really feel like Christmas at all
Emphasizing the absence of Christmas spirit
Those Christmas lights
Describing the illuminating effect of Christmas lights
Light up the street
Depicting the impact of lights where the sea and city meet
Down where the sea and city meet
Wishing for the resolution of troubles through lights
May all your troubles soon be gone
Expressing hope for the elimination of difficulties
Oh, Christmas lights, keep shining on
Encouraging the endurance of Christmas lights
Those Christmas lights
Repeating the theme of illuminated streets and troubles
Light up the street
Suggesting the lights may bring back a lost person
Maybe they'll bring you back to me
Connecting the return of someone to the resolution of troubles
Then all my troubles will be gone
Expressing the belief that all troubles will vanish with a return
Oh, Christmas lights, keep shining on
Encouraging the enduring shine of Christmas lights
Oh, Christmas lights
Reiterating the brightening effect of Christmas lights
Light up the street
Connecting lights to personal fireworks or emotions
Light up the fireworks in me
Wishing for the disappearance of troubles through lights
May all your troubles soon be gone
Expressing hope for the resolution of difficulties
Those Christmas lights, keep shining on
Encouraging the continuous brilliance of Christmas lights
