B.Miles Xmas Sox Lyrics

Joni was playing Baby’s
We both went to the show
And as she started singing
We caught eyes, you faked “hello”

I choked and looked at my shoes
I’m wearing your Christmas socks
If you knew I took ’em from you
I hid everything, but you never noticed

I’d feel my feet freezing
Brushing on your skin that winter
I’m with you
Under the burning blurring during
The silent night it fell apart
In Christmas socks late after dark

You weaved your way in the crowd
Stood next to me to watch
Songs of broken hearts were
Bouncing on the light back-drop

The encore song had started
I bolted to the bar
And – chased a shot of whiskey
That I spilled onto those socks, then headed home without you and remembered

I’d feel my feet freezing
Brushing on your skin that winter
I’m with you
Under the burning blurring during
The silent night it fell apart
In Christmas socks late after dark
