A Fine Frenzy - Red Ribbon Foxes lyrics

rate me

<br>

There's snow on your collar, boy<br />

There's snow on the bench<br />

There's snow on the sleeping grave<br />

And the crooked fence<br />

<br />

And if you've been crying <br />

With my hand on my chest <br />

I swear I'll never tell<br />

<br />

The town is aglow with lights<br />

The carolers sing<br />

You sister won't sleep tonight<br />

For the morning brings <br />

That old happy Christmas <br />

You came here to find it<br />

I did as well<br />

<br />

For joy doesn't come in boxes <br />

Nor peace in a heavy watch<br />

Those red ribbon foxes are not so easy caught<br />

But the search it never stops<br />

<br />

The son of a holy man<br />

You dream of the saints<br />

So thin with your poet hands <br />

And your eyes of flame<br />

<br />

And I'd like to kiss you<br />

Full on the mouth<br />

I don't care if you tell<br />

<br />

For love doesn't come in boxes <br />

Nor truth in a crowded shop<br />

Those red ribbon foxes are not so easy caught<br />

But the search it never stops<br />

<br />

For faith doesn't come in boxes <br />

Nor God in your silver cross<br />

Those red ribbon foxes are not so easy caught<br />

But the search goes on and on<br />

The search it never stops

<br><br><br><br>

<br>
