Boxing Day Holiday Lyrics

If you're walking by the station

By the taxi rank

You'll see kids staring into nothing

While the drivers stare right back

Across the street they've put up the rent

The shopkeeper knows he's gotta go

If you ask him where he says he'll follow the wind

He's just waiting for it to blow

He turns and points and says

"See that girl, she's been staring between her feet all day

I don't know what she's thinking

Or how she's gonna make it pay…"

And baby, I think of you

And how all you wanna do is grow

And I wish I was beside you now

So I could let you know

I'm gonna give you more than you have ever known

I'm gonna give you more than you have ever known

Some of our best friends have come and gone

Some of the best people too

Sometimes life comes apart

Like it's stuck together with cheap glue

I can't believe I'm here again

Sometimes the past just won't let go

But I'm not the only one

I see the faces all in a row

I'm gonna give you more than you have ever known

I'm gonna give you more than you have ever known

I'm not giving up again, I'm not giving up again, not giving up

Odd jobs, cheap smokes

And I'm counting the change

I'm hoping it lasts but if it didn't

It wouldn't be strange

Oh baby I want to take you

Where the happiest dreams grow

On Boxing Day Holiday

We'll sit in the traffic slow

And drive to where happiness is still within reach

And drop all our worries like towels on the beach

And drop all our worries like towels on the beach

I'm gonna give you more than you have ever known

I'm gonna give you more than you have ever known

I'm not giving up again, I'm not giving up again, not giving up
