[Verse] Lights are twinkling on the tree But there's an emptiness I see Echoes of laughter fade away Thoughts of you won't let me stay [Chorus] Snowflakes of goodbye fall gently down In this silent night I'm lost and found Wishing on a star that won't appear Cuz Christmas ain't the same without you here [Verse 2] Stockings hanging by the fire Used to fill our hearts with desire Now they're shadows of the past Nothing here can seem to last [Chorus] Snowflakes of goodbye fall gently down In this silent night I'm lost and found Wishing on a star that won't appear Cuz Christmas ain't the same without you here [Bridge] Every carol brings a tear Memories so vivid and so near Heartbreak wrapped in tinsel's glow Just another day I'll let it go [Verse 3] Gifts unwrapped and left behind No joy in the morning I can find Underneath the mistletoe It's your absence that I know
