We skipped between raindrops as we danced down the street
Revellers long gone, it was just you and me
We made stupid plans and we laughed till we cried
You were so beautiful
A sparkle under lights
I didn't kiss you this Christmas
But I sure wanted to
The only gift that I wanted
Was to spend time with you
With you
I was lost last Christmas but this year I am found
You took me from sadness, turned me around
I don't believe in angels and you're too wicked to be
In any heavenly choir, but by God, you saved me
I didn't kiss you this Christmas
But I sure wanted to
The only gift that I wanted
Was to spend time with you
With you
Didn't kiss under mistletoe
Didn't kiss by the tree
Didn't kiss in a churchyard
Didn't kiss in the street
Didn't kiss on Christmas Eve
Or on Christmas Day
And that's okay
That's okay

Christmas in Calton

I miss my beautiful boy
The smell of your skin and the smile in your voice
Every Sunday I pray
Give as much as I can when they pass the plate
I want you to know
This is a hard place but a kind place
This is a hard place but a kind place
The kindness of strangers is not enough to warm
Another Christmas without you, my love
I see you in the shapes when the lights go on
I wish you were here with me
Spending Christmas in Calton
I miss the sunshine
Oh, how you'd laugh at the cold
And you'd hold me
And you'd never let go
I want you to know
This is a hard place but a kind place
This is a hard place but a kind place
The kindness of strangers is not enough to warm
Another Christmas without you, my love
I see you in the shapes when the lights go on
I wish you were here with me
Spending Christmas in Calton
I miss my beautiful boy

A Christmas Prayer

I hope you have a good one
I hope your Christmas is fun
I hope you're with your family
And I hope there's something for you under the tree
And I hope you thank your lucky stars
Say a prayer for the lost and the lonely
Pray for the battered and the bruised
Raise your glasses and remember
The ones who didn't make it through
I don't believe there's a God up there
But I offer up a Christmas prayer
Fill every aching heart with love
Fill every hateful heart with love
Fill every broken heart with love
Fill every empty heart with love
Fill our hearts with love

Habibi's garage minimalism has a bit of post-punk, bubblegum, and indie in its DNA, but remains something entirely, coolly their own.
