When lovers hold hands to keep warm
Sitting at the fireplace on a winter storm
The moonlight glistens on fallen snow
All the kids faces with that expectant glow,

It's Christmas time oh don't you know?
Where did everyone in my life go?
I thought we might get snow this year
Just when I thought you were sincere,

Let me get lost in a candle's glow
I couldn't find the good old Mistletoe
My heart seems caught in some ice flow
Memories haunt wherever you go,

St. Nicolas is off on a magic sleigh ride
Long ago before I lost my bride
There was something gone from deep inside
Lost every love even though I tried,

Angels sit on top of Christmas trees
The faithful fall on bended knee
Surely life will go on without me
Just as children will laugh so happily,

A woman's heart is like the holidays
It swells with joy when I'm away
They were never really meant to stay
Love is a cheap commodity anyway,

Christmas now has just begun
I should be merry like everyone
Sadly that is except for some
The lonely man becomes numb,

But truly he is the thoughtless fool
Failing to remember that golden rule
What you receive is what you give
Time to make the choice to heal and live,

Christmas was fun because of those around
Just to share that special sound
No other time could that magic be found
Why can't I pick myself up off the ground?
