Holiday Parties by Empty Atlas Lyrics

What's with the two of us at holiday parties?
Always miss each other heading for home
I thought by now at one of them one of our mutual friends

Would introduce us since we came here alone

You'd tell me all about your graduate studies
How the work is tough but worth every dime
Or maybe you just have an office job
Turns out your building's right there next to mine

I don't know you, but I want to
Maybe we'll hit it off, maybe we won't
We've got a minute now to figure something out
You want to dance to "White Christmas"?
Should I stop talking now?

What's with the two of us at holiday parties?
Like we're circling each other all night
Is it just me or does there seem to be a pattern forming
That we could break if only we'd break the ice?
You'd tell me all about your graduate studies
How the work is tough but worth every dime
Or maybe you just have an office job
Turns out your building's right there next to mine

I don't know you, but I want to
Maybe we'll hit it off, maybe we won't
We've got a minute now to figure something out
You want to dance to "White Christmas"?
Should I stop?

I don't know you, but I want to
Maybe we'll hit it off, maybe we won't
We've got a minute now to figure something out
You want to dance to "White Christmas"?
Should I stop talking now?
