That Time Of Year

That time of year when shops close early, everyone has gone home

That time of year when you can really hurt me, the world is movin' so slow

That time of year you think 'bout all your choices, where the hell did you go?

It's never colder than when hearts get warmer and it's supposed to snow

My doorbell is ringin'

I'm far out of reach

No choir boys singin'

No lights on any trees

I really wish that you found someone

That he holds your hand, that he understands

Don't worry, I'm good at drowning tears

Baby, it's that time of year

There's Christmas songs on the radio

Creeping in like Radiohead

Don't worry, I'm good at drowning tears

Baby, it's that time of year

An empty seat, no talk around the table, we didn't make it this year

And all the kids are hooked on their new AirPods, silent night over here

I've seen the world like I'm a sailor on the seven seas

There's one season that I'm avoidin', I spend it on the beach

My doorbell is ringin'

I'm far out of reach

No choir boys singin'

By the slot machines

I really wish that you found someone

That he holds your hand, that he understands

Don't worry, I'm good at drowning tears

Baby, it's that time of year

There's Christmas songs on the radio

Creeping in like Radiohead

Don't worry, I'm good at drowning tears

Baby, it's that time of year
