PELLS & SAMPLES

————————-

Last year, my girlfriend (at that time only a friend) didn’t want to spend Christmas with her family. Instead, wanted to be alone.

In Brazil, the 24th is the most important day, with a big dinner close to midnight.

So she got a ticket and, at midnight, she was on a coach heading to Rio de Janeiro.

But people on the coach started to greet themselves because, well, it was Christmas!

The ccMixter Holiday event reminded me this case.

Where do you go?

You,
where do you go
to forget
that you don’t have
where to go
and it’s christmas

Where do you go
when every street
is a river
have you cried

You,
what did you feel
on that coach
did you really think
you’d be alone
but it was christmas

Have you lost something
or someone
somewhere in the way
have you missed it
