The whole world is lit up like it's Some kind of magic dream Everyone is in love Or that's the way it seems Outside the snow is falling Inside is just as cold Lying in this empty bed without you Here to hold So close yet so far away For Christmas time I'm counting down the minutes Until I see your face The only gift I want is To be in your embrace I can't wait for Christmas time And even if you're far away now My heart is there with you I'm gonna make it somehow There is nothing I won't do To be home For Christmas time Another crowd of people Another city street Another day without you I'm feeling incomplete And every time it seems like I hear the cosmic tune It only makes me smile Cause I know I'll be home soon So close yet so far away For Christmas time I'm counting down the minutes Until I see your face The only gift I want is To be in your embrace I can't wait for Christmas time And even if you're far away now My heart is there with you I'm gonna make it somehow There is nothing I won't do To be home For Christmas time There is no sleigh without snow There is no tree without light There is no need without you By my side For Christmas time I'm counting down the minutes Until I see your face The only gift I want is To be in your embrace I can't wait for Christmas time And even if you're far away now My heart is there with you I'm gonna make it somehow There is nothing I won't do To be home For Christmas time I'll be home for Christmas (repeats) For Christmas time
