Get these tunes in high-quality awesomeness at niic.bandcamp.com LYRICS: Once upon a holiday I had taken more from you than I could give You were kind but blind to the Scrooge in me Or could it be You believed in me Once upon a holiday You gave me warmth, you gave me your heart And I was grateful, but hateful of all I couldn’t do for you What could I return How could I return But what’s passed is past I suppose nothing’s to last But if clocks they all could unwind I’d pull back them all and find the time to find you If it’s alright by you I’d like to hold you Like it’s the last part before we part ways And show you the things I never could say Once upon a holiday Once upon a holiday I had left you all alone You barred the doors, closed the blinds, till the holidays subside How could it be true What have I done to you Once upon a holiday I came to stay You took my breath away You filled a cup that never could be full I hated me for letting down my walls And so your fences too I couldn’t let your love undo The loneliness I deserved Oh what did I break your heart for? But what’s passed is past And love was just in our grasp But if clocks they could all unwind I’d pull back them all and find the time To find you Now it’s once upon another holiday Again I visit your iron bars There’s no way today you’d let me come inside to say How I was wrong Oh god how I was I wrong Has the past really passed I love you more than lifetimes can last Please forgive me, let these clocks unwind And I’ll let love back inside me
