Christmas At Denny's - Randy Stonehill[00:00:00]
They got Christmas Muzak[00:00:09]
Piped in through the ceiling[00:00:12]
And the refills of coffee[00:00:15]
Are always for free[00:00:18]
And the waitress on graveyard[00:00:21]
And the surly night manager[00:00:24]
Are wishing that all[00:00:27]
Of us losers would leave[00:00:29]
There's a star on the sign[00:00:35]
At the Texaco Station[00:00:38]
Like the star long ago[00:00:41]
On that midnight clear[00:00:43]
As I look all around[00:00:48]
At these cold empty faces[00:00:50]
I doubt that you'd[00:00:53]
Find many wise men here[00:00:54]
And I'm dreaming about[00:00:59]
A silent night Holy Night[00:01:04]
When things were alright[00:01:09]
And I'm dreaming about[00:01:11]
How my life could have been[00:01:13]
If only if only if only[00:01:16]
But somewhere down the road[00:01:23]
I gave up that fight[00:01:26]
Merry Christmas[00:01:31]
It's Christmas at Denny's tonight[00:01:34]
Once I had a home[00:01:47]
And a wife and a daughter[00:01:49]
Had a company job[00:01:53]
Earning middle class pay[00:01:55]
Then Lisa got killed[00:01:59]
By a car near the schoolyard[00:02:01]
And my wife started drinking[00:02:05]
Just to get through each day[00:02:07]
I will never forget[00:02:13]
That little red wagon[00:02:16]
Turning to rust[00:02:19]
All alone in the rain[00:02:20]
One morning I flagged down[00:02:26]
A truck on the highway[00:02:28]
I just couldn't bear[00:02:30]
To go back there again[00:02:32]
And I'm dreaming about[00:02:37]
A silent night Holy night[00:02:42]
When things were alright[00:02:47]
And I'm dreaming about[00:02:49]
How my life could have been[00:02:51]
If only if only if only[00:02:54]
Well it's not just the blind man[00:03:01]
Who loses his sight[00:03:04]
Merry Christmas[00:03:09]
It's Christmas at Denny's tonight[00:03:13]
And they say[00:03:20]
Life's made of cruel circumstance[00:03:22]
Fate plays the tune and we dance[00:03:27]
Dance til we drop[00:03:32]
In the dust and we're gone[00:03:34]
And the world just goes on[00:03:37]
The cop at the counter[00:04:04]
He's the guardian angel[00:04:06]
He watches these orphans[00:04:10]
Through dark mirrored shades[00:04:12]
And the register rings[00:04:16]
Like a bell sadly tolling[00:04:18]
For the fools we've become[00:04:22]
And the price that we paid[00:04:25]
Oh when I was a boy[00:04:31]
I believed in Christmas[00:04:33]
Miracle season[00:04:36]
To make a new start[00:04:38]
I don't need no miracle[00:04:43]
Sweet baby Jesus[00:04:46]
Just help me find[00:04:48]
Some kind of hope in my heart[00:04:50]
And I'm dreaming about[00:04:55]
A silent night Holy night[00:05:00]
When things were alright[00:05:05]
And I'm dreaming about[00:05:07]
How my life could have been[00:05:09]
If only if only if only[00:05:12]
But I'll still be here[00:05:20]
At the morning's first light[00:05:22]
Merry Christmas[00:05:27]
It's Christmas at Denny's tonight[00:05:31]
Merry Christmas[00:05:37]
It's Christmas at Denny's tonight[00:05:41]
