lyrics

It's been 10 years and 2 wives since we first met
In the snow on Christmas Eve.
Your eyes were so bright and the snow fell all night
But we were warm by the fire inside.

And the gifts you gave and the games we played
Still haunt me this time every year.
And the dreams we once had, now they all have gone bad.
Every Christmas I still think of you.

We kissed and made love 'til the stars up above
Had faded into the dawn.
We drank and we spoke, we danced and we smoked,
And wasted the night away.

And the gifts you gave and the games we played
Still haunt me this time every year.
And the dreams we once had, now they all make me sad.
Every Christmas I still think of you.

And the gifts you gave and the games we played
Still haunt me this time every year.
And the dreams we once had, now they all drive me mad.
Every Christmas I still think of you.

Now it's New Year's Day, you're on your way
To another town.
We'll try to write, but it's for naught
'Cause we'll not meet again.

And the gifts you gave and the games we played
Still haunt me this time every year.
And the dreams we once had, now they all make me sad.
Every Christmas I still think of you.
Every Christmas I still think of you.

Good Future
by EMEFE

Miles may be the drummer in Antibalas, but his own Emefe is clearly his brainchild. Funky and hypnotic tunes, great musicianship, and an incredible sound shape everything that this band has to offer. Doombalaya
