about

ALL SALES TO THE NI CHILDRENS HOSPICE - As the Holly did grow from the cold yet glowing branches, an idea grew within the Deadlifts stable to write a festive song to unite the nations. As the disgruntled four walked through a snowstorm of despair they searched the glistening skies searching for hope in a hopeless world when suddenly they spotted a stark Christmas tree through a window reflecting hope on all those who looked on hand in hand. In this very moment the Northern Irish Quartet knew that everything was going to be ok, it was in this very moment that this future festive classic was born.

lyrics

And so comes this time of year again when the cold starts to grow
Dark nights are rolling in again and the pace starts to slow
and we're driving around just searching for tree lights and festive fun
We look for trees a glowing, Christmas time has begun

Chorus

Yeah I see Christmas Trees, Christmas Trees
(Where?)
Over there in the window dear
Christmas Trees, Christmas Trees
(Where?)
Over there in the window

Yeah I smell turf in the air, laughter everywhere as we walk hand in hand
Pushing cards through the door, mulled wine bring me more
And play me my favourite swings bands

And we drive around just searching for tree lights and festive fun
We looks for trees a glowing, Christmas time has begun

Yeah I see Christmas Trees, Christmas Trees
(Where?)
Over there in the window dear
Christmas Trees, Christmas Trees
Over there in the window

We're having a great time
we're praying for snow
get you lights in the window so that everyone knows its Christmas time

Yeah I see Christmas Trees, Christmas Trees
(Where?)
Over there in the window dear
Christmas Trees, Christmas Trees
Over there in the window

I see Christmas trees
I've got that festive feel
yeah I see Christmas Trees

about

thedeadlifts Northern Ireland, UK

After 20+ years of playing in noisy hardcore bands such as Duellists; writing a festive traditional Christmas song was NOT the obvious next step for members of Northern Irish quartet ‘The Deadlifts’. The disgruntled four had to somewhat bury their old 90s Jesus Lizard and Fugazi influences and temporarily exchange them for Holiday legends such as The Pogues and the mighty Ratpack! ... more
