lyrics

There’s people in the streets
Singing Christmas songs
Kids are writing letters
Addressed to Santa Clause

I keep waiting to feel it
That magic in the air
'Cuz this used to be my favourite
Season of the year

But the truth is
Even as the snow falls
Now that you’re gone
It doesn’t feel like Christmas at all

I’m watching all the shoppers
Checking off their lists
I still can’t believe that this year
Ill be buying one less gift

There’s presents in my living
That keep staring at me
I can’t bring myself to wrap them
Or decorate my tree

'Cuz the truth is
Even as the snow falls
Now that you’re gone
It doesn’t feel like Christmas at all

And I just want to go back
To the gold old days (to the good old days)
Yeah I just wanna go back

'Cuz the truth is
Even as the snow falls
Now that you’re gone
It doesn’t feel like Christmas at all
