Goodbye to Christmas
(Thelonious Octopus & KC)
lyrics ©2008 Jeff Stoneking

Goodbye to the days I once believed
That you would put gifts under my tree
Goodbye to the happy Christmas days
And to my blissful childlike ways

Goodbye to Santa, reindeer and elves
And to fairy tales we tell ourselves
Goodbye to the days of play pretend
Those days, my friend, have come to an end

Goodbye
Goodbye make believe
Goodbye
Now I truly see
Goodbye
Goodbye

I find it odd we celebrate God
Coming to Earth in a frail bod
By spending money we can't afford
Just to get stuff we come to ignore

Goodbye, this Christmas is not the same
The illusion's gone and there's pain
All's not lost in winter snow and rain
My Christmas spirit will never wane

Goodbye
Goodbye make believe
Hello
Now I truly see
Hello
Joy inside of me
