Christ Child

I'll take the gift of this hour,
As the dark creeps in.
Wanna tell you that I'm ready,
But you know lyings a sin.
You got a smile I could get used to,
But I can't understand the reasons why it's hurting you.
Hey there,
Christ child.
Are you lost so deep in his love?
Hey there,
Bright eyes.
Yet another hole you're stitching up.
Said you had a weak centre of gravity,
Told me you fall into every touch.
But I've lived far too many lives to remedy.
Your chestnut eyes can tell that much.
Why do you want to be in love?
Why do you want to be in love?
How'd you get lost so deep in love?
Is it another hole you're stitching up?
Can you tell I've drank myself to death with love?
I fear the way you fear feeling my touch.
Need to hear your name fall off my tongue.
Maybe we're waiting for a wound healed up.
Hey there,
Christ child.
I'll take you dancing till we change our minds.
Hey there,
Bright eyes.
I wanna be the strength that's hard to find.
