#acoustic #singersongwriter #xmas I got this idea for a Christmas breakup song when I attended a holiday function this past month, where they had a photo booth. As if we needed another Christmas song. 😀 I wrote down the title, and I scribbled down an idea for a chorus last month. It's a fictional story about a Christmas-time breakup that happens after a couple has their picture taken at a holiday party. The man is looking back on this years later. Sad one to begin the year, but it just came out this way. Not based on any ones real experience.

The two of them took their place in line against the wall , outside at Christmas time They could hear the music from a midnight mass of a choir singing tunes from their past

The photo booth was dark inside but the flash of light starts to hurt their eyes When the photos came out, they checked their smiles but the look on her face showed a trace of a lie

Refrain: In the Photo Booth, She couldn’t hide She couldn’t stay with him, hard as she tried

Now the years have past since that Christmas time and the memories comeback like the wind and the chimes when he sees the photo, pinned on his back wall he’s back to that year, its not hard to recall

He told himself he has moved on in life He’s made a family home with his wife But he thinks of her at this time of year It never goes away, when he feels the cold air
