Christmas Time (Classic Version) - Bryan Adams

I got my first real six string Bought it at the five-and-dime Played it 'til my fingers bled Was the summer of '69 Me and some guys from school Had a band and we tried real hard Jimmy quit and Jody got married I shoulda know we'd never get far But when I look back now That summer seemed to last forever And if I had a choice Yeah, I'd always wanna be there Those were the best days of my life Ain't no use in complainin' When you've got a job to do Spent my evenin's down at the drive-in And that's when I met you, yeah Standin' on your mama's porch You told me that you'd wait forever Oh, and when you held my hand I knew that it was now or never Those were the best days of my life Oh, yeah! Back in the summer of '69 Oh Man, we were killin' time We were young and restless We needed to unwind I guess nothing can last forever Forever, no Yeah And now the times are changin' Look at everything that's come and gone Sometimes when I play that old six-string I think about you, wonder what went wrong Standin' on your mama's porch You told me that it'd last forever Oh, and when you held my hand I knew that it was now or never Those were the best days of my life Oh, yeah Back in the summer of '69 Uh-huh It was the summer of '69 Oh, yeah Just me and my baby in a '69 Oh, whoo! It was the summer Sweet, sweet summer time Yeah, c'mon It was the summer of '69

I could start dreamin' but it never ends As long as you're gone, we may as well pretend I've been dreamin' Straight from the heart You say it's easy but who's to say That we'd be able to keep it this way But it's easier Comin' straight from the heart Oh, give it to me straight from the heart Tell me we can make another start You know I'll never go as long as I know It's comin' straight from the heart I see you on the street some other time And all my words would just fall out of line While we're dreamin' Straight from the heart Oh, give it to me straight from the heart Tell me we can make one more start You know I'll never go as long as I know It's comin' straight from the heart, oh Don't ever leave me, darlin' Yeah Oh, straight from the heart Tell me we can make one more start You know I'll never go as long as I know You'll give it to me now Straight from the heart Tell me we can make one more start You know I'll never go as long as I know It's coming straight from the heart Give it to me, oh no, oh yeah Straight from the heart You know I'll never go as long as I know It's coming straight from the heart

Tryin' to say I'm sorry, didn't mean to break your heart And find you waitin' up by the light of day There's a lot I want to tell you but I don't know where to start And I don't know what I'd do if you walked away Ooh, baby I tried to make it I just got lost along the way But every time I look at you No matter what I'm goin' through It's easy to see And every time I hold you The things I never told you Seem to come easily 'Cause you're everything to me I never really wanted to let you get inside my heart I wanted to believe this would soon be ending I thought it wouldn't matter, if it all just came apart But now I realize I was just pretending Ooh, baby, I know I hurt you But you can still believe in me 'Cause every time I look at you No matter what I'm goin' through It's easy to see And every time I hold you The things I never told you Seem to come easily 'Cause you're everything to me It's gonna take a little time to show you Just what you mean to me, oh yeah It seems the more I get to know you The more I need to make you see You're everything I need, yeah Oh, I need ya, I need ya, I need ya, need ya Oh, baby, baby, baby, I know I hurt you But you can still believe in me 'Cause every time I look at you No matter what I'm goin' through It's easy to see And every time I hold you The things I never told you Seem to come easily 'Cause you're everything to me You're everything to me, you're everything to me

I looked out across The river today Saw a city in the fog and an old church town where the seagulls play Saw the sad shire horses walking home In the sodium light Two priests on the ferry October geese on a cold winter's night All this time The river flowed Endlessly To the sea Two priests came 'rounf Our house tonight One young, one old To offer prayers for the dying to serve the final rite One to learn, one to teach Which way the cold wind blows And fussing and flapping in priestly black Like a murder of crows All this time The river flowed Endlessly To the sea If I had my way I'd take a boat from the river And I'd bury the old man I'd bury him at sea Blessed are the poor For they shall inherit the Earth Better to be poor than a fat man in the eye of a needle As these words were spoken I swear I hear the old man laughing "What good is a used up world, and how could it be worth having?" All this time The river flowed Endlessly Like a silent tear All this time The river flowed Father, if Jesus exists Then how come he never lived here? Yeah, yeah Yeah, yeah Yeah, yeah Teachers told us The Romans built this place They built a wall and a temple and an Edge of the Empire garrison town They lived and they died They prayed to their Gods But the stone Gods did not make a sound And their empire crumbled, 'til all that was left Were the stones the workmen found All this time The river flowed In the falling light Of a Northern sun If i had my way Take a boat from the river Men go crazy in congregations They only get better one by one Yeah, yeah (one by one) Yeah, yeah (one by one) Yeah, yeah (one by one) Yeah, yeah (I looked out across) Yeah, yeah (The river today) Yeah, yeah (Saw a city in the fog and an old church town) Yeah, yeah (Where the seagulls play) Yeah, yeah (Saw the sad shire horses walking home) Yeah, yeah (In the sodium light) Yeah, yeah (Two priests on the ferry) Yeah, yeah (October geese on a cold winter's night)
