Christmas at Danburry Pond

from Lynette by Drew Danburry

/

lyrics

I sit here staring at a frozen pond and it's been 5 long years since I've been skating on it
and I know you're not the type to come and meet me here but girl I miss you something fierce
and if I have my way it'd make me spoiled but if you give me one more chance girl I will toil
I'll put in, put in every effort where it's due because I'm still in love with you

I'm spending Christmas at a frozen pond and my eyes freeze from all the tears
We used to hold hands from the dusk to dawn but now I'm wishing for past years
I'd make a wish with coins that you'd come back but this pond sealed its wishing well
I'd wish on stars and heaven up above if it weren't clouded like a spell

I twiddle thumbs I sit and curse my fate my family's back at home enjoying gifts and may
be making every sweet thing one could dream about but all my lips want is your mouth

and in the distance someone's coming here to taunt my wishes all to shame
they have themselves a pair of skates in hand and I could swear they say my name
to drive that dagger deeper deep in me somehow they know I long for you
another year at the same pond again another Christmas oh so blue

But now that I see a bit more clearly that scarf seems familiar no, it couldn't be but
that jacket you wear well I could just swear it seems just the same as the one that I gave you
5 years ago I hurt you I know but if you take me back I will give all that I can
I'm down on my knees begging you please come spend Christmas with me
oh how I love you lady


We'll both go skating on a frozen pond cause it's been 5 years since we've both been skating on it and now I know that you're the type to come and meet me here and I can't wait to share the years


We'll spend our Christmas at a frozen pond we'll skate around it hand in hand
and Christmas never got as good as this I'm overjoyed oh yes I am
I'd make a wish but all my dreams came true and this pond's one big wishing well
I cannot wait for every year to come my love is yours forever my belle
