[thetworegs]

Not everyone loves Christmas.........Poor old Reg he's just got to learn to let go of those bad memories and enjoy life again instead of hanging on to the past....come on Reg Drink up.....it's Christmas!!!

All i need is Love on Christmas Eve (Lyrics)
Its that time of year again
where hearts bleed and tears fall
when you revive the memories that have hide deep inside your mind
They return each year just around christmas time
this time last year
i held you so near
we got drunk as skunks on christmas eve
by the morning we didn't know where we were and santa had left his presents under the tree and oh how rolled around in our love
we said we'd never forget our love,
but a whole year has passed by
and those memories have died

Christmas is hollow, it's not a joyous time, oh no
I feel empty when i hear the choir sing
i feel lonely and cold as i walk the crowded streets
with the merriment in the air and the lights and the whole pantomime
people walking by with their bags full of presents for loved ones
i got nothing at all
i got nothing left for no one
christmas time for me is not a ball
it's a time of torment and fire inside my mind
oh why can't it be like yesterday
why is everything so hollow and so far away
why can't it be like the dream on Tv
all i want is love this christmas eve
i'm begging on my knees all i need is love
all i need is love

57 to 69 Brass solo

Oh Christmas feels so hollow it's not a joyous time
all it does creep inside my mind and eat my memories alive, eat my memories alive
The day that i found you, in the arms of that other man
i couldn't believe what my eyes had seen
my soul it bleed
my soul it bleed
its that time of year again when my heart bleeds and tears fall
and i revive the memories of that day
The day after  Christmas day
the party and the fun
why does it feel so hollow
why cant it be like the dream
all i want is a dream
all i want is a dream of love on christmas eve
all i need is love on Christmas eve

All i need is love on Christmas Eve

Heard this earlier over at the other site. Nice originality and heartfelt music...uplifting and sad, kinda Springsteen-esque...I love that brass. Very good post Trev.

Heartbreaking, powerful and poignant. Christmas brings depression to a lot of people...please go hug your kids Reg and try to see Christmas through there eyes.

oh why can’t it be like yesterday
why is everything so hollow and so far away"
