The Bridge On Xmas Eve

We meet up on the church steps
And send the kids inside
To find themselves a place to sit
I can just hear “Silent Night”
Then we pass round the bottle
As the organ plays it slow
Feel the glow as the whisky does its thing
Feel it as the choir starts to sing
Terry’s got his troubles
Suzannah’s on the mend
It’s sad for Keith and Karen
The way that they pretend
And as for me and Maureen
We’re hanging on I guess
Yes, we hold hands across the green
And the Christmas lights are not the worst I’ve seen
One day a year, we’re side by side
We’re as thick as thieves
We share regrets and place our bets
On who’s the last to leave
We all sing songs for Jesus
Even though we don’t believe
And we all get drunk together
In the Bridge on Christmas Eve
Every other day goes by
You don’t see anyone
We pass each other on the street
But we’ve always got to run
In the real world we’re just neighbours
We’re not what you’d call friends
But in the end, we always say it’s going to be
Different next year, more like Christmas Eve
