It's So Close to Christmas (And I'm So Far from Home) - The Bellamy Brothers

How does the moon stay up in the sky Does it get tired of pullin' the tides What can I say, if the question is, "why?" What can it do when it's too hard to try 'Cause it seems to me When the sky's empty You must be lost and lonely 'Cause you're up there all alone Tryna reach out to a world so close Everybody feels alone Far away has never felt so close So you're up there all alone Tryna reach out to a world so close Everybody feels alone Far away has never felt so close to me What does it mean to be rockin' the sky? Watching the world as it passes you by 'Cause it seems to me When the night's empty You must be lost and lonely 'Cause you're up there all alone Tryna reach out to a world so close Everybody feels alone Far away has never felt so close So you're up there all alone Tryna reach out to a world so close Everybody feels alone Far away has never felt so close to me Far away So close So close Far away, far away Far away So close So close Far away, far away Far away So close So close Far away, far away Far away So close So close Far away, far away Far away

Hey, old friend, let's look back On the crazy clothes we wore Ain't it fun to look back And to see it's all been done before? All those nights together are our special memories. And I can't wait for tomorrow just As long as you're dancing next to me. Cuz it's so clear, every year we get stronger! Though what's gone is gone... And the past is the past... Turn the radio up... And then hit the gas cuz... I know we've come so far, but we've got so far to go. I know the road seems long, but it won't be long 'til it's time to go. So Most days we'll take it fast, but some nights we'll take it slow. I know we've come so far, but baby! Baby! We've got so far to go! Hey, your friends are together, side by side and year by year! The road was filled with twists and turns. Oh, but that's the road that got us here. Let's move past the bad times. But before those memories fade... Let's forgive, but not forget the love from all the mistakes we made. Cuz it's so clear! Every year, we get stronger. So don't give up and don't say when. And just get back on the road again cuz. I know we've come so far, but we've got so far to go. I know the road seems long, but it won't be long 'til it's time to go. So Most days we'll take it fast, but some nights we'll take it slow. I know we've come so far, but baby! Baby! We've got so far to go! Hey ol' friend! Come along for the ride. There's plenty of room so jump inside. The highway is rockin' every now and then. It feels so much better where I been. Just keep moving at your own speed, Your heart is all the compass you'll ever need, Let's keep cruising on the road we're on Because the rear view mirror only shows what's gone gone gone! We've got so far to go! Oh it's so clear! Every year, we get stronger. So shine that light and take my hand And let's dance into the promise land cuz... I know we've come so far, but we've got so far to go. I know the road seems long, but it won't be long 'til it's time to go. So Most days we'll take it fast, but some nights we'll take it slow. I know we've come so far, but baby! Baby! We've got so far to go!

Well, it sure is nice down here this time of year The tourists are tanned and there's holiday cheer Here comes santa claus, havin' a tropical christmas I'm mailin' out cards to the great frozen north Sweatin' from the energy I could force In jingle bells, havin' a tropical christmas And when the sun sets down in the ocean We'll decorate the palm tree We'll mingle ornaments with coconut lights Then we'll go caroling through paradise And thank baby Jesus for this tropical silent night First we'll open our presents, then we'll lay on the Beach Later we'll call, see what relatives we reach In their winter wonderland, havin' a tropical christmas And when the sun sets down in the ocean We'll decorate the palm tree We'll mingle ornaments with coconut lights Then we'll go caroling through paradise And thank baby jesus for this tropical silent night Hey kris kringle, when you empty your sleigh Stop by and kick back with us a few days You and rudolph, havin' a tropical christmas We'll build a snowman in sand, havin' a tropical Christmas Grandma wants a new bikini, havin' a tropical christmas Y'all come on down, we'll have a tropical christmas Bring your suntan oil, havin' a tropical christmas Let their be peace on earth, havin' a tropical Christmas Bring some surfboards for the kids

What you need is a sugar daddy Diamond rings and a brand new candy Little things to help a girl make it through And what you need are satin pillows Ribbons fallin' down like willows What you need is me to love you. You're the kind of woman Who likes to be on her own Except for those times You need a man all night long. You like all the finer things All my money can buy I like the way your body sings I love the fire in your eyes. What you need is a sugar daddy Diamond rings and a brand new candy Little things to help a girl make it through And what you need are satin pillows Ribbons fallin' down like willows What you need is me to love you. We could be a secret Our own private affair But I would give the world to you Just so you know that I care But if friends should find out If they try to frown I'll put your pedestal up so high They won't dare to look down What you need is a sugar daddy Diamond rings and a brand new candy Little things to help a girl make it through And what you need are satin pillows Ribbons fallin' down like willows What you need is me to love you. What you need is me to love you. End
