I was just a little boy in search of my story
Trying to tame the fish in the sky
I missed an adventure, the doctor found one for me
Seeing the stars with you by my side,
An old friend once took a long time
to teach me that life isn’t always fair
So I guess I’m unfairly lucky then
to have found you at all.
We’re halfway out of the darkness
And we’ve never seen the light of day
I want to watch the sun rise over the foggy spire with you.
And you may be frozen
But it’s me who’s grown cold.
I’m starting to remember my life with you in it
Flying through the skies in our shark-driven sleigh
Knowing that happiness was just one Christmas Eve away.
I was the phantom of my Christmas future
When me as a boy saw me as a man
I had been afraid of wasting our last day
But without you I had been wasting away.
