the records turnin' slow, im stackin logs to warm my toes
soon ill be fishing on christmas, so it goes
i leave my box in the bed if the fish aren't jumping the fish are dead, or they've left me like you did, or this old lakes full of lead
still im spooling out the line 15 after quitting time you once were my angel now you're no friend of mine
fishing on christmas instead of thinking of you
i stick to shadows this time of year, avoid the lamplight and hallway mirrors
ill quit thinking about chicago in three or four more years
i made my calls got the machines im scooping out vanilla bean
wish you could block out the glow of the TV
the things that you have cant be taken away and the things that you give leave in bitter decay
but the nights are still getting colder in a burning LA
im still thinkin about you on christmas day
at night, im still a man. chestnuts roll around the pan
ill save some for you -- the new year is right 'round the bend
