[Verse 1]
Woke up to sun streaming in my room
Warm beachfront palm December afternoon
You close your eyes, another year blows by
Somewhere in the wind, just another life
[Verse 2]
My parents sent a Christmas card and tennis shoes
"We understand you're staying and we're proud of you"
There's a well-rehearsed disinterest in the atmosphere
I don't know if that's what this town gave me or if it led me here
[Pre-Chorus 1]
And I played so many parts
I don't know which one's really me
Don't know if I can take
[Chorus 1]
Another Christmas in L.A.
Another pitcher of Sangria
In an empty beach café
Another Christmas in L.A.
Hold me tighter, Carmelita
I don't know how long I can stay
[Verse 3]
Left a girl behind in my old man's truck
And sometimes I wonder where she ended up
Maybe she got married, had a couple of kids
Who do you think you're fooling, man? Of course she did
Woke up to sun streaming in my room
Warm beachfront palm December afternoon
You close your eyes, another year blows by
Somewhere in the wind, just another life
[Verse 2]
My parents sent a Christmas card and tennis shoes
"We understand you're staying and we're proud of you"
There's a well-rehearsed disinterest in the atmosphere
I don't know if that's what this town gave me or if it led me here
[Pre-Chorus 1]
And I played so many parts
I don't know which one's really me
Don't know if I can take
[Chorus 1]
Another Christmas in L.A.
Another pitcher of Sangria
In an empty beach café
Another Christmas in L.A.
Hold me tighter, Carmelita
I don't know how long I can stay
[Verse 3]
Left a girl behind in my old man's truck
And sometimes I wonder where she ended up
Maybe she got married, had a couple of kids
Who do you think you're fooling, man? Of course she did
