The days are getting smaller
And the nights are growing
It's dark and it's winter
The shadows will disappear before we get up
When we get home
With our bodies behind us
Everything is precisely the same
And everything is precisely
As imprecisely as yesterday
And now we sit here and forget and forget
December, December
It's been a long time
December, December
Yes, you're always standing there where it ends
The city is standing there and blinking
In the rhythm of christmas chains
us to another disappearing year
The last frozen meters
That takes us away from here
Lies endlessly
Meanwhile the snow pours down
When we get home
With our bodies behind us
Everything is precisely the same
And everything is precisely
As imprecisely as yesterday
And now we sit here and forget and forget
December, December
It's been a long time
December, December
Yes, you're always standing there where it ends
December, December
December, December
When we get home
With our bodies behind us
Everything is precisely the same
And everything is precisely
As imprecisely as yesterday
And now we sit here and forget and forget
December, December
It's been a long time
December, December
Yes, you're always standing there where it ends
The days are getting smaller
And the nights are growing
It's dark and it's winter
The shadows will disappear before we get up
December, December
