Another Lonely Christmas - Prince

{b-side of I would die 4 u}
Last night I spent another lonely christmas
Darling, darling, u shouldve been there
Cuz all the 1s I dream about
U are the 1 that makes my love shout
U see, u are the only 1 I care 4

Remember the time we swam naked
In your fathers pool?
Boy he was upset that night
But boy was that ever cool

Remember the night we played pokeno 4 money
And u robbed me blind
Remember how u used 2 scream so loud
Cuz u hated that number 9

Hey, I saw your sister skating on the lake
This afternoon
Good heaven how shes grown
She swoons the boy skaters shes so tall

But of all your fathers children
All your fathers children, baby
U know, u are the finest of them all
U are brighter than the northern star

Last night I spent another lonely christmas
Darling, darling, u, u shouldve been there
U see, of all the 1s I dream about
U are the 1 that makes my love shout
U see, u are the only 1 I care 4
Yeah

My momma used 2 say
Always trust your lover
Now I guess that only applies 2 her

Cuz baby u promised me
Baby u promised me ud never leave
Then u died on the 25th day of december
Oh baby

Last night I spent another lonely, lonely christmas
Darling, baby, u, u shouldve been there
Cuz all the 1s I dream about
U are the 1 that makes my love shout
U see, u are the only 1 I care 4
Yeah

Your father said it was pnemonia
Your mother said it was strep
But the doctor said u were dead
And i, I say its senseless

Every christmas night 4 7 years now
I drink banana daquaris til Im blind
As long as I can hear u smilin baby
U wont hear my tears
Another lonely christmas is mine
Yeah, mine
Yeah
Another lonely christmas is mine

Last night, yeah, I spent another lonely, lonely christmas
Darling, darling, u shouldve been there, yeah
Cuz all the 1s I dream about
U are the 1 that makes my love shout
U see, u are the only 1 I care 4

Another lonely
