people are climbing up to make night lights from their homes
and when they're one they show a safe way through the cold
people are humming songs from their youth as we approach that day
everyone's wondering why it can't stay this way
we'll promise this month that the things that matter to us
are actually things that matter, swear we won't forget by the new year
we'll kill a nice pine tree, sure hope that it don't mind
we'll dress it up nicely, he'll help to remind
that some things don't freeze no matter how cold it gets
will it last till new year's? place your bets
don't count it out just yet
i want to make some new traditions with you
and when christmas comes we'll stay in our pajamas all day
because we're not gonna get out of this bed without the promise of hot chocolate
to keep us warm and alive in a season most things die
and we'll remember throughout december to look for the best in each other
because we get let down the rest of the year
on christmas eve make me believe that this feeling can last.

This album is beautifully crafted and emotional. Adam's guitar playing is incredible - intricate yet simple and melodic. The lyrics are infinitely moving, and each song is full of honesty and passion. Hides A Well
The mood of this album completely surrounds you and invokes a plethora of emotions. It is full of thoughtful lyrics and hauntingly beautiful melodies. Hides A Well
Poetic and ethereal folk songs paired with a handful of clever pop tracks - all sung beautifully. I am constantly impressed by Young Legs. Hides A Well
