Текст Rodney Crowell – Merry Christmas From An Empty Bed

Текст:

Rodney Crowell:
That artificial Christmas tree
My baby left behind
I told her when she brought it home

It suited me just fine
I can’t believe one little lie
Still haunts me to this day
But what else can I say
She’s the one that got away

The evergreen seems pointless
For a tired old fool like me
The fake one more resembles now
The man I’ve come to be
And anyway the slowly-turning
Colors of the wheel
Reminds me how I feel
This really can’t be real

Red, yellow, green
Green, yellow, red
Merry Christmas from an empty bed

Brennen Leigh:
Outside my window all the streets
Are covered up with snow
Somehow I thought believing in our love
Would make it grow
And God knows faith can cover up
A multitude of sins
But you wouldn’t let me in
I trim the tree again

In red, yellow, green

Green, yellow, red
Merry Christmas from an empty bed

Rodney Crowell:
So she learned to read my lies
Like tea leaves in a cup
And here it is, that time of year
To put that thing back up
I guess I’ve grown accustomed
To the artificial glow
And now she’ll never know
How much I loved her so

Red, yellow, green
Green, yellow, red
Merry Christmas from an empty bed
