Pennsylvania Holiday Lyrics

Well the lights are shining on the houses that line my street
and me, i'm calling to a cell phone that's far away
cuz december has been rolling in since two weeks ago
there's just nothing like cold air to make me feel at home

well i've been working way too hard
it seems that all i need
is a pennsylvania holiday
to make me feel like me

cuz it's the perfect time for the holidays
i don't think that i can wait
i've been so good this year
i feel that i've been making progress
and all i ask from you this time
is a break from all the stress of life
let's drink, let's sing, relax
and bring the year in with a smile

do you remember the stories we were told when we were kids
about snowfall and reindeer and that jolly old saint nick
do you miss feeling youthful or are you searching for clarity
about why we grew up and forgot just how to believe

well i've been working way too hard
it seems that all i need
is a pennsylvania holiday
to make me feel like me
just get my friends and family
and celebrate the warmth that christmas brings
a pennsylvania holiday
is all we need

cuz it's the perfect time for the holidays
i don't think that i can wait
i've been so good this year
i feel that i've been making progress
and all i ask from you this time
is a break from all the stress of life
let's drink, let's sing, relax
and bring the year in with a smile

well here's to the days when we had faith and such simple dreams
of waking up at dawn to a snow-filled lawn and the scent of christmas trees
although time has passed this feeling's lasted or so it seems
we've gotten older now but we've finally found just what christmas means

cuz it's the perfect time for the holidays
i don't think that i can wait
i've been so good this year
i feel that i've been making progress
and all i ask from you this time
is a break from all the stress of life
let's drink, let's sing, relax
and bring the year in with a smile
