Lyrics
It's been too long since I last saw you
It's been so long since our last kiss
I've never stopped thinking about you
You are my only Christmas wish
Now that you're gone away
My Christmas just ain't the same

The snow is falling on my window
As I look out into the night
The sky is full of glowing colors
The dark lit up by Christmas light
But now that you're gone away
My Christmas just ain't the same

Without you

Great song Ridd - love the jingle bells, and especially when your wailing guitar comes in. Why isn't this on the radio??

excellent
really nicely done. love the piano, the vox and the drums/bells sound awesome. that picture of Santa crying in his beer is great. those harmonies are really cool in the chorus too, i like how they almost sound dissonant. nice bit of rocking at the end too. this will be on my xmas itunes playlist for sure. good to see you back around.

i actually thought of you when I did those chorus harmonies. i imagined it was something you would have sang there if I'd have sent it to you for a collab. thanks man glad you like it

Really good
sound. I like how you take a simple melody and then do a really good embellishment instrumentally and vocally to make it a great song. Excellent, M

First, your art is great -
Santa crying in his beer is so perfect for this song. I like the lyrics, they're delivered great, and the whole thing rocks. Especially the jingle bells.

I love the
"This is some sh*t that went down around Christmas" tunes. A nice change of pace from the really sugary sweet stuff. Those harmonies are so close and so well done. The rocking at the end puts this over the top.

when this started coming together I got influenced by the harmonies you did in 'Wasted On You'. That song is still a top fave of mine here. glad you like
