Another Lonely Christmas

Coming home the longer route

I'm kicking off my heavy shoes

And sitting by the fire

Reminded of the time gone by

When you and I would laugh and fight

And try to put the world to rights

But end up on the floor

No wiser than we were before

Oh, sweet heart of mine

Left there frozen in time

I wish that I, I could break the ice

But it's another lonely Christmas ahead

And I'll be wishing I could spend it with you instead

'Coz every present, every song in the air

Only echoes every winter we used to share

Yeah, baby, I'm still holding out

For what we had and what is now

Another lonely Christmas ahead

In photographs, your face is pale

Just like a winter fairy tale

The princess set in stone

Lies forever all alone

And I wish fairy tales were true

So I could come and rescue you

But heaven only knows

It's just the way the story goes

Left there frozen in time

I wish that I, I could break the ice

But it's another lonely Christmas ahead

And I'll be wishing I could spend it with you instead

'Coz every present, every song in the air

Only echoes every Christmas we used to share

Yeah, baby, I'm still holding out

For what we had and what is now

Another lonely Christmas ahead

So it's another lonely Christmas ahead

And I'll be wishing I could spend it with you instead

'Coz every present, every song in the air

Only echoes every Christmas we used to share

Yeah, baby, I'm still holding out

For what we had and what is now

Another lonely Christmas ahead

Another lonely Christmas ahead

Another lonely Christmas ahead
