December fever again
Death bells are louder this time
Like two dozen eggs plus half
Has the last one hatched and lives
Big lucky number thirty
Birthday or victory cake

December fever again
My heart seems colder this time
Gentle night slowly sipping
Tears from its usual cup
At this fireplace I sit
Aching and needing your warmth

December fever again
I do need your love this time
Life is a struggle uphill
Now help me to make the climb
Bathe me in milk and honey
Sweet lovely who heals like nurse
