Xtc - Always Winter but Never Christmas lyrics

Always winter but never christmas

You won't open your box or kiss under this

How can I let you know?

Always easter but never egg giving

Crucify meI just don't call this living

How can I let you know?

Can't you hear the bells ringing out?

Can't you hear the fishmongers shout?

That the way to live is celebrate and give

Stop it beingalways winter but never christmas

Always ageing but never birthday

Told your last joke and threw your mirth away

Oh how can I let you know?

Always turkey timenever thanksgiving

Share some gold outbut don't just sit there sieving

How can I let you know?

Can't you read the words upon the wall?

Can't you hear the butcher boy's call?

That we need to sharelove between each pair

Stop it beingalways winter but never christmas

I'd unwrap you if you'd only step down from your tree

From your presentinto some undone future with me

Always winter but never christmas

Always thatmas but never thismas

Oh how can I let you know?

Can't you hear the bells ringing out?

Can't you hear the fishmongers shout?

That the way to live is celebrate and give

That we need to sharelove between each pair

Warm it up

Always winter but never christmas
