Further down the slope
 And twist like the others
 With no great hope

 We could never be lovers, we could never be
 There for each other on Christmas Eve
 We could never be lovers; we could never be
 Friends

 I've got a ticket
 With no return
 The price is all wicked
 And now I've learned

 That we could never be lovers, we could never be
 There for each other by the Christmas tree
 We could never be lovers; we could never be
 Friends

 I was so touched
 I was happy for a night
 And I'm surprised to see you
 Looking for a fight
