Christmas Eve

I look up at the sky
A star is shining
Frost is in the air
It's Christmas Eve
All the people in their homes
Safe apart
But in my heart
It's still Christmas Eve

And I'm waiting on the bells
To ring on Christmas morning
For the snow to fall
Its peaceful blanket forming
And all the world is calm and bright
And all that I may wish tonight
Will come to be
Next Christmas Eve

This year will be the first time
I won't step inside
My childhood home
On Christmas Eve
And for everyone tonight
Who'll be alone
Hold on to hope
It's still Christmas Eve

And I'm waiting on the memories
We'll make for you and me
Family all around us
Kids around the tree
There's nothing else I've ever wanted more
For Christmas Eve

But for tonight

I'll be standing on the doorstep
Outside my parents' home
Where the neighbours all will hear me
And everyone will know
That all the world is calm and bright
And all I've wished with all my might
Will come to be

But for tonight
It's still Christmas Eve
