Lonely Man of Winter lyrics

[Verse 1]

In the world that you would make up

With unicorns and buffalo packs

I know that you would wake up

With the sunny side touching your back

[Chorus 1]

Is it the lonely man of Christmas?

Coming up with theories on him

Is it the lonely man of Christmas?

He's riding in the devil's abyss

[Verse 2]

Oh, I would rate the future

If I could put a finger on it

But I have no idea

If what I want is better than this

[Chorus 2]

Is it the lonely man of winter?

I could put my finger on that

Is it the lonely drive to Denver?

The loneliness of Hoppington's hat

[Chorus 3]

Is it the time we spent in silence?

The silence of a winter he had

Is it the lonely man of winter?

I could put my finger on that

[Outro]

And even if it's Christmas

Could we just pretend for a bit

That everything we went through

Was someone else's carpenter kiss
