Christmas Day in the Sun

December Dozen of palm trees Give up those car keys And walk to the new year Ignore these mischievous motives My balance and focus get blurry when you're near But I want my Christmas day in the sun All I want this year is California It's not too much to ask for Christmas day in the sun I need a better way to spend the new year As long as you're around Yeah Rain drops are painted on rooftops Locals, they don't stop I know where it's headed I'm not cut our for these parties I know where my heart is I try and forget it So I want my Christmas day in the sun All I want this year is California It's not too much to ask for Christmas day in the sun I need a better way to spend the new year As long as you're around Their faces always go away When we were young I heard you say It's yours to lose It's yours to lose Don't say i'll wait You don't have to remember I'm out of excuses I hear the echos of us in the station They're pointing and laughing Reminding me I want my Christmas day in the sun All I want this year is California It's not too much to ask for Christmas day in the sun I need a better way to spend the new year December
