This Christmas, Keep Your Distance (oh Baby)

This Christmas, Keep Your Distance
Don't let it slide now, don't let it slide now
Christmas, Keep Your Distance
Don't go too far away

As I was lying in my bed
Your message came to me
You were hanging around and waiting for a flight
Hanging around down on the other side

Here a storm is raging
We're caught in a freeze
A wicked blizzard has us down on our knees
The streets are lit up, decorated plenty
They're all deserted and the bars are empty

Never thought I'd wish you didn't come home
Maybe you should spend this season alone
(And stay on the phone)

This Christmas, Keep Your Distance
Don't let it slide now, don't let it slide now
Christmas, Keep Your Distance
Don't go too far away

The heat is rising as you wait in line
The air is clear and I am not denying
I was thinking about those 'Normal People'
Want to be with you like normal people

My mask is slipping, I want you so bad
But there's nothing left here of the things that we had
Now the bells are ringing and a distant chime
Reminds of another Christmastime

Maybe we could cuddle up by the fire
Wander Winterland, fulfil our desires
Would I be a liar?

This Christmas, Keep Your Distance
Don't let it slide now, don't let it slide now
Christmas, Keep Your Distance
Don't go too far away
This Christmas, Keep Your Distance
Don't let it slide now, don't let it slide now
Christmas, Keep Your Distance
Don't go too far away

Keep smiling, 'cos the sun is shining
Every Pohutukawa has a silver lining
Our love is contagious, so 'til everything changes
We can wait for a while
It's just ten thousand miles

(What more can we take)

This Christmas, Keep Your Distance
Don't let it slide now, don't let it slide now

(Have we had enough)

Christmas, Keep Your Distance
Don't go too far away

(Spending Christmas Day)

This Christmas, Keep Your Distance
Don't let it slide now, don't let it slide now

(Without the ones we love)

Christmas, Keep Your Distance
Don't go too far away

Christmas Keep Your Distance (x 4)

This Christmas, Keep Your Distance
Don't let it slide now, don't let it slide now
Christmas, Keep Your Distance
Don't go too far away

This Christmas, Keep Your Distance
Don't let it slide now, don't let it slide now
Christmas, Keep Your Distance
Don't go too far away

This Christmas, Keep Your Distance
Don't let it slide now, don't let it slide now
Christmas, Keep Your Distance
Don't go too far away

This Christmastime
This Christmastime
Don't let it slide
