Wake Up It’s Christmas - Janet Devlin

Apollo’s burning in the sky I must have been awake all night An empty bed A broken heart A glass of empty kind of start My eyes are tainted scarlet red Thinking of the words unsaid But that’s no way to spend my day I whisper to myself and sing Wake up it’s Christmas There’s no time to waist And I don’t need to see his face Oh wake up dear Christmas is here And it’s that time of year And I don’t really need him near All the locks they have been changed All the presents rearranged Memories they haunt my wall I thought we had it all Smiling faces on a cart Season’s greeting’s here they are Warmest wishes sent for us But it’s just me this Christmas Wake up it’s Christmas There’s no time to waist And I don’t need to see his face Oh wake up dear Christmas is here It’s that time of year And I really need him near me So hurry up Hurry up, hurry up Get out of bed
