What's it like being far away from home on Christmas? Sometimes the holiday cheer can chill you to the bone... so here's a holiday track to keep you warm and remind you you're not so alone after all.

An original song written and recorded by Staircase Spirits: Anna Maria, Daphne Greene, and Eva 'You'll Shoot Your Eye Out' Friedman

Tinsel Town Lyrics:

This December feels like new beginnings,
This December feels so strange,
Sparkling red, twinkling green lights from palm trees,
They seem to sing to me all the ways my life has changed,

And this is Christmas in a town made of tinsel,
This is sending love over the phone,
And this year, this year it got so heavy,
This yuletide cheer can chill you to the bone,
Cuz it’s Christmas far away from home,

It doesn’t feel like winter and you know it doesn’t snow,
But ghosts of good times past still make the air seem cold,
It’s times like these you just might miss the places you once lived,
And the long lost memories glow with time until you forget why you left,

And this is Christmas in a town made of shooting stars,
This is sending love over the phone,
And this year, this year it got so heavy,
This yuletide cheer can chill you to the bone,
Cuz it’s Christmas far away from home,

And maybe it’s not like, not like it used to be,
And yeah, the change might sting, but maybe that’s what’s right,
You see, seasons change and this will pass by sure as falling leaves,
And maybe this is where we’re meant to be,

And this is Christmas in a town made of flashing lights,
This is sending love over the phone,
And next year, next year it might be brighter,
This yuletide cheer won’t chill you to the bone,
And next year you won’t feel so alone,
Despite Christmas far away from home...

Staircase Spirits is derived from the French term “L’esprit de l’escalier”, which refers to the moment where you realized what you wanted to say - when it was too late to say it. SCS is my diary.
