The carols sing of joy and cheer
But all I feel is you're not here
The twinkling lights they do not glow
Cause deep inside it's dark you know
The snowflakes fall like dreams undone
Lost in the crowd yet feeling none
Couldn't keep my heart at bay
In the silent night I lost my way
Searching for your face in shadows cast
Holding on to moments gone so fast
Every smile a veil of what's been lost
In the festive night I bear the cost
The laughter rolls like heedless waves
But my heart's in hidden caves
Empty seats at table's end
Wish that time could just rewind and mend
Every ornament they hang with care
Reminds me how you're not there
In a room full of sparkling lights
I fade away in winter nights
Searching for your face in shadows cast
Holding on to moments gone so fast
Every smile a veil of what's been lost
In the festive night I bear the cost
