Текст The Killers – Christmas In L.A.
Текст:
Woke up to sun streaming in my room
Warm beachfront palm December afternoon
You close your eyes
Another year blows by
Just another life
My parents sent a Christmas card and tennis shoes
«We understand you’re staying
And we’re proud of you»
There’s a well-rehearsed disinterest in the atmosphere
I don’t know if that’s what this time gave me
Or if it led me here
And I played so many parts
I don’t know which one’s really me
Don’t know if I can take
Another Christmas in L.A.
Another pitcher of Sangria
In an empty beach café
Another Christmas in L.A.
Hold me tighter Carmelita
I don’t know how long I can stay
Left a girl behind in my old man’s truck
Sometimes I wonder where she ended up
Maybe she got married, had a couple of kids
Who do you think you’re fooling man?
Of course she did
I’m walking in Dan Tana’s bar
Try and talk with Harry Dean
I don’t know if I can take
Another Christmas in L.A.
For a job that doesn’t pay
Another Christmas in L.A.
Another burnout in a tank top
It seems your basket is the case
A fat protagonist in flip flops
With an extensive resume
From Echo Park to Catalina
Dreaming of a white Christmas
The one I used to know
Tree tops glisten, children listen
To sleigh bells in the snow
Another Christmas in L.A….
