Song of the Week: The Weepies' "All That I Want"

A radio station in town has already been playing 24/7 Christmas music for a week.  And that means I'm already tired of dogs barking out "Jingle Bells."  The Committee To Save Christmas Music from Inanity has met, and we're submitting a new playlist to radio stations. First up, here's "All That I Want" from The Weepies.



Out in the harbor
The ships come in, it's Christmastime
The kids all holler carols 'cross the water
Stars that shine

All that I want, all that I want

Above the rooftops
The full moon dips it's golden spoon
I wait on clip-clops, deer might fly
Why not? I met you

All that I want, all that I want

And when the night is falling
Down the sky at midnight
Another year is stalling
Far away a good bye, good night

All that I want., all that I want, all that I want

So small a turning
The world grows older every day
An ache, a yearning
Soften when I hear you say

All that I want, all that I want

And when the cold wind's blowing
Snow drifts through the pine trees
In houses lights are glowing
Likewise in your eyes that find me here

With all that I want.

Out in the harbor
The ships come in, it's Christmastime
It's Christmastime
It's Christmastime.
