Ragtime Manifesto

from Ghosts of Christmas Past by The Winter Sounds

/

lyrics

All the lovers hold each other in sleepy mountain towns
while moonlit snowflakes softly fall into piles on the ground
And whispers in the winter wind hum love songs in your name
Here I am trudging home, the bars are closed.
There's no one else to blame.

Christmas was the catalyst and Carolina was a curse.
It didn't take too long to realize how things could get much worse.
There's so much more to life than this but you and I just won't be missed.
Though we hang our heads and bang our fists, the band plays on tonight.

Stay with me through one last verse. You make the time I'll write the words
And on this simple page, some hope remains to trace the lines back to their source.
There's so much more to life than this but you and I just won't be missed.
Look around, I'm through with fighting this.
There's so much more to life than this but you and I just won't be missed.
Though we hang our heads and bang our fists, the band plays on tonight.
I'll drink myself to sleep again. On Christmas eve, I won't give in.
If we hold on tight we might just win. The band plays on tonight.
