Steven Mark Simons - Dark As December lyrics

rate me

Well, it's sad to say, but you've had your day

And all those nights you'll never remember

you're growing grey, like the ashes of Pompeii

And it's getting dark, dark as December

Well, the merry-go-round slowly crawls to a stop

And then the carnies collapse the old big top

Cheap chills and thrills sent away on a train

you're taking another trip down memory lane

Well, the movie ends and the credits scroll by

As the music fades like momma's lullaby

it's all been done, every story's twice-told

it's blowing, it's snowing, it's getting cold

Well, it's sad to say, but you've had your day

And all those nights you'll never remember

you're growing grey, like the ashes of Pompeii

And it's getting dark, dark as December

Well, the stylus is stuck deep down in the groove

And just like that needle, you go nowhere to move

Well, who's gonna pick you up with a new start?

And who's gonna drop you down and break your heart?
