Variation on a theme by Michael Nyman.

lyrics

The waves are big and the water is warm
And two days from Monday it'll be a new year
Who would have thought
You hold the glass
And I'll poor
I'm still waiting on my Christmas miracle
The wind is fierce
And the sea is tall
And the sun is sinking low into the ocean gold
It's beautiful
don't let the kids play
by the broken wall
And I'm sill waiting for my Christmas miracle
But you know
I'm still driving
Passed Albert park
Down to Phillip Island
I play diamonds
On my windshield
And watch the steam rise
In the rain fall
I'm still waiting on my Christmas miracle

The sound of the silver on porcelain
Mixes with the laughter and the chatter
And the talk talk talk
And the last race call
I raise my glass to your new store
I'm still waiting on my Christmas miracle
The smell from the kitchen my stomach rumbles
My glass is smudged
The beer in the jug has gone warm
Is that the time? Oh lord
I guess I just got caught
waiting for my Christmas miracle
Remember when we raced
Down to the warf
You can still see the marks
Where we let the engines roar
You know I'd still beat you
Any day at all
Still put my pedal
Right to the floor
But I'm still waiting on my Christmas miracle
The lights come on and the music stalls
How did those chairs get on the table? My shirt get so worn?
You look better than you ever did before
I'm still waiting on my Christmas miracle
And next year I'll come to your's
I'll show up at your house right at your front door
Take you for a ride
In my new sports car
And I'll be laughing out loud just like
Old Santa Claus
We'll go faster than we've ever done before
Just like we've lifted off, started to soar
I won't be waiting anymore
Im not waiting for my Christmas miracle
