about
A special festive release! Taken from the December release in ButterflyPolite's year of monthly singles.
lyrics
Is this all there is
On your Christmas list?
Is this all you wish for
A Christmas Kiss?
Is this all there is
On your Christmas list?
How can I say 'no'
When you ask me politely
How can I say 'no'
When you put it so nicely
How can I say 'no'
Although I know it's not right
Christmastime is a time to be polite.
Perhaps you'd have me wrapped
As a Christmas gift
Me beneath the tree
A merry mistletoe kiss
I see that you believe
In a Christmas wish
How can I say 'no'
When you ask me politely
How can I say 'no'
When you put it so nicely
How can I say 'no'
Although I know it's not right
Christmastime is a time to be polite.
Streets are virgin white
Tippexed over night
Covered up mistakes
Adrift is all it takes
A thank you note and fresh start
Should warm us to the heart
Or so I'm told
But all I feel is cold
How can I say 'no'
When you ask me politely
How can I say 'no'
When you put it so nicely
How can I say 'no'
Although I know it's not right
Christmastime is a time to be polite.
