Whiskey For Christmas
Whiskey Wishes: Healing Hearts with Spirits of Christmas
Lyrics
I’m wishing for whiskey this Christmas
I express a desire for whiskey during the Christmas season.
I’m dreaming of a bottle under the tree
I envision having a bottle of whiskey as a gift under the Christmas tree.
I’m wishing for whiskey this Christmas
Reiteration of the wish for whiskey during the holiday season.
To ease the mind you left behind and erase your memory
I seek whiskey to alleviate the thoughts you left behind and erase memories of you.
I don’t want any golden rings or sparkly things
I'm not interested in traditional gifts like golden rings; whiskey is preferred.
Take those lights and ornaments out of your shopping cart
Rejecting festive decorations; whiskey is more essential than ornaments.
No candy canes are as sweet as you, they won’t stop my tears
No festive sweets compare to the sweetness of the person, and they can't stop my tears.
This year only whiskey can soothe my broken heart
Expressing that only whiskey can provide solace for a broken heart this year.
I’m wishing for whiskey this Christmas
Repetition of the desire for whiskey during the Christmas season.
I’m dreaming of a bottle under the tree
Reiteration of envisioning a bottle of whiskey as a Christmas gift.
I’m wishing for whiskey this Christmas
Repeating the wish for whiskey to ease the lingering thoughts and memories.
To ease the mind you left behind and erase your memory
Reaffirming the need for whiskey to cope with the aftermath of a relationship.
I’m much too blue for toys and stockings all hung with care
Expressing a state of sadness that goes beyond the joy associated with traditional holiday items.
I’m not listening for any reindeer hooves up above
Indifference to typical signs of Christmas, such as reindeer hooves on the roof.
I’d be just fine with no snowflakes floating down outside my window
Contentment with the absence of snowflakes as long as wrapped in the love of the person.
As long as I was still wrapped up in your love
Highlighting the importance of being in love, irrespective of external holiday elements.
Now I hear all the merry little children on the busy sidewalks
Observing children's questions about a person's appearance, possibly due to drinking.
Asking “Mommy, why is that man’s nose so red?”
Explaining a potential reason for a reddened nose, likely caused by alcohol consumption.
It’s ‘cause tonight I’m sending myself tidings of Comfort on the rocks
Choosing whiskey as a source of comfort during the holiday season.
And in the morning there’ll be twelve drummers right inside my head
Anticipating the consequences of excessive drinking, symbolized by "twelve drummers inside my head" the next morning.
I’m wishing for whiskey this Christmas
Repeating the desire for whiskey during Christmas.
I’ll be opening a bottle, or two, or three
Planning to open multiple bottles of whiskey during the holiday.
But then I finally read your parting message
Discovering a message about the person leaving to see family, causing emotional distress.
“Darling, I’m seeing my folks and my phone’s been broken
Quoting the departing message, indicating a broken phone and a return on Christmas Eve.
I’ll be back on Christmas Eve”
Anticipating a reunion on Christmas Eve, suggesting a mix of emotions.
