Soon After Christmas - Stina Nordenstam

I've called you now a thousand times

I think I know now

You're not home

I've said your name a thousand times

To be prepared if you'd be there

I wanted so to have you

And I wanted you to know

I wanted to write songs

About how we're walking in the snow

You've got me slightly disappointed

Just a bit and just enough

To keep me up another night

Waiting for another day

The city's taking a day off

The streets are empty

No one's out tonight

My life is in another's hands

I wanted so to have you

And I wanted you to know

I wanted to write songs

About how we're walking in the snow

But there's no snow this winter

There's no words for what I feel for you

It's not enough

Though it's too much

Why must it always be like that

The TV screen is lighting up my room

The film has ended

Every inch of my skin is crying for your hands

And I wanted so to have you

And I wanted you to know

I wanted to write songs

About how we are walking in the snow

You've got me slightly disappointed

Just a bit and just enough

To keep me up another night

Waiting for another day
