[Verse 1]
I thought I knew it all
But I was the captain of moving too fast
So when my ships sank out in front
I was left all alone
Then when we met
There was quiet, your slow silhouette
Stood still by me and I didn't blink
No, I hadn't seen anything
[Chorus]
Now Christmas in July is coming true
The Grinch has come to dine with all the Whos
Got all the presents I was hoping to
'Cause I love you
[Verse 2]
You're safety and ease
So what happens when both of us leave?
Can I find you? And where will we be?
Will we still have our home?
I don't know about God
But a silent hand keeps me calm
I'd been looking for you for so long
For our time, I'll be calling out
[Chorus]
That Christmas in July's coming true
The Grinch has come to dine with all the Whos
Got all the presents I was hoping to
'Cause I love
[Bridge]
I was afraid I would break all the china
The glass balls, that I had a problem inside
Now the lights are turned on, the colours are brighter
The carols, the choirs, mean Christmas in July's coming true
[Verse 3]
So through the stars
Right past Jupiter, Saturn and Mars
I'll be stood by you, holding your arm
Riding right through the dark, watching the moments pass
And even the plain things
On the days when we're both home for lunch
Sitting side by side, out in the sun
Oh, I am the lucky one
[Chorus]
'Cause Christmas in July's coming true
The Grinch has come to dine with all the Whos
Got all the presents I was hoping to
'Cause I love you
Yes, I love you

“I met someone and it felt like Christmas had come and I’d won the lottery at the same time. I feel like they took all the things that I knew and really flipped them on their head, which was exactly what I needed.” – Alex the Astronaut in a track-by-track interview with Junkee.
