Lyrics Gary Barlow

Gary Barlow

How Christmas Is Supposed To Be

I've given all I've got

You've given me nothing

Something to believe in

Sleepless nights

But every day I wonder

You're still dreaming

If I'm wasting my time here

No surprise

The voices way too loud

Emotions up and down

Searching hard to find some light

It's a war, it's a fight

On the worst of all nights

No, it's not the red that we wanna see

There will be no release

Till we're down on our knees

Can we both agree

It's not how Christmas is supposed to be

I'm hoping this will be the year

I've been saying that forever

Agree to disagree

No compromise

Stay in

Go out

Be alone

Be together

Respecting each other even despite

The way we scream and shout

Forever falling out

Too much wrong, too little right

It's a war, it's a fight

On the worst of all nights

No, it's not the red that we wanna see

There will be no release

Till we're down on our knees

Can we both agree

It's not how Christmas is supposed to be

No, it's not how it's supposed to be

No

Maybe we can start over again

Make tonight the beginning instead of the end

Put down our weapons

Dry all our tears

Find love, love this Christmas Eve, yeah

Woo!

Merry Christmas, everyone

Just look into my eyes

Let me apologise

Here's the only place that I wanna be

I wanna be

The only gift that I need is you loving me

And we both agree

This is how Christmas is supposed to be

This love, this love

This love is right where I wanna be

The only gift that I need is you loving me

Now we both agree

This is how Christmas is supposed to be
