The lights are tangled on the tree
But nothing here feels right to me
The snow falls slow
It doesn't glow
Your laughter's missing in the show
I miss you most on Christmas Day
When the world feels bright but I'm still gray
The carols hum but they don't play
Like they did when you would stay
The stockings hang
An empty row
Your name still etched
But you don't show
I pour some cheer
But it tastes thin
No holiday can bring you in
The fire cracks
It doesn't warm
Your absence hits me like a storm
I miss you most on Christmas Day
When the world feels bright but I'm still gray
The carols hum but they don't play
Like they did when you would stay
I see your face in the frosty glass
Your shadow moves through the winter past
The clock strikes twelve
The silence roars
I'm chasing ghosts through open doors
