Lyrics

[INTRO]
Snowflakes dancing, lights aglow,
But my heart feels heavy, and it’s hard to show,
The joy and laughter that once filled this place,
Now there's an empty chair, no familiar face.

[VERSE 1]
The tree is trimmed, the stockings are hung,
Carols are sung, but it don’t feel so fun,
The echoes of laughter fade into the night,
Can’t shake this feeling, it just doesn’t feel right.

[CHORUS]
Oh, it's hard to celebrate, with you far away,
The joy of the season feels a little gray,
I light a candle and whisper your name,
In this holiday silence, it’s never the same.

[VERSE 2]
The cookies are baked, and the table set,
But I’m missing your stories, can’t help but regret,
We’d drink hot cocoa, and spill all our dreams,
Now I'm left with memories, bursting at the seams.

[CHORUS]
Oh, it's hard to celebrate, with you far away,
The joy of the season feels a little gray,
I light a candle and whisper your name,
In this holiday silence, it’s never the same.

[BRIDGE]
But as the stars twinkle on this silent night,
I feel your love guiding me in the light,
So I’ll raise a glass to the ones we hold dear,
In this bittersweet Christmas, I know that you’re near.

[CHORUS]
Oh, it's hard to celebrate, with you far away,
The joy of the season feels a little gray,
I light a candle and whisper your name,
In this holiday silence, it’s never the same.

[OUTRO]
So I’ll carry you with me, each tear, every cheer,
Through the laughter and sorrow, I know you’re still here,
A part of this season, forever you’ll stay,
In my heart, you’ll be with me, this Christmas Day.
