Lyrics Maria McKee

Maria McKee

Late December

I always stood out on Dream Street

Set up to fall down on Dream Street

Diamond branches, crack upon the dawn

I keep holdin' on, why do I keep holdin' on

And from your window the lamplight golden

Falls frozen round my shivering shoulders

This late December (baby baby when can we)

When can we start over

Been the season of naivity

I search for reason in epiphany

Rubber bangles tangled up my home

Strands of amber glowing warm

Strangle like a reef of thorn

Dragged down trees in the icy lots

And the relics of the holy found their sacred spots

This late December (baby baby when can we)

When can we start over

Ooh...

Down by the river the wind kicks up

And it sits down Christopher hoggin' it up

Lord knows how the city has changed

But things down here kinda stay the same

And the Westside boys singin' ode to joy

The Westside boys singin' ode to joy

This late December (baby baby when can we)

When can we start over

Late, late December (baby baby when can we)

When can we start over
