let’s wait to tell the kids till after christmas
let’s give them one more present by the tree
one more photo in the wreath one more drop of make-belief
we’ll tell the kids the truth by new years eve
darlin it’s been a long time coming
you’d think we’d learn to live with give and take
but i see your feeling stuck
so i’ll help you pack the truck
just wait until the school’s on winter break
please darlin, just wait till after christmas
to sell the kids on breaks towards fresher starts
you won’t change for me and i won’t change for you
but we can lay a memory on their hearts
let's wait to tell the likes till after christmas
let’s give one last present by the tree
one last photo in the wreath one last drop of make-belief
then we’ll tell the kids the truth
but let’s wait to tell the kids
we’ll tell the truth after christmas
