Texty: Joe. Home Is The Essence of Christmas. It Ain't Christmas.

Here on this night so silent
I pray to heaven to bring you home
Snowflakes have turned to rain
Rafters defrost on my window pane

Can you hear the children carol?
Singing songs of joy but not for me
Pierced through my heart like an arrow
Holiday pictures of you and me

Come to the tree
We can light this night together
Just you and me
The way it used to be

It ain't Christmas
If I sit at home without you, without you
So hard to, if I had a thing to say
It ain't Christmas
If I sit at home without you, I pray
Pray that you'll be the gift the angels bring

Guilt follows me like a shadow
If given the future, the past I'd change
Your gentle touch, it stays with me
The love you gave was so unique

The way you care, the love we share
Even now I can see you standing there
I see the ghost of Christmas all around
Your smiling face, I like this happy sound

Oh girl, come to the tree
We can light this night together
Just you and me
The way it used to be

It ain't Christmas
If I sit at home without you, without you
So hard to, if I had a thing to say
It ain't Christmas
If I sit at home without you, oh, baby
Pray that you'd be the gift the angels bring

No mistletoe, no midnight low, so crazy
Living here without you in my life
No eggnog toast, no cuddles close by the fire
Without you I always spill a tear

No sharing gifts, no snow bound trips, so crazy
Living here without you in my life
No reason to shop, no end, no top by the fire
Without you I always spill a tear

Just you and me
The way it used to be

It ain't Christmas
If I sit at home without you
So hard to, if I had a thing to say
It ain't Christmas
If I sit at home without you
I don't wanna be home without you
Pray that you'd be the gift the angels bring

I pray, I pray, I pray
If I'm sitting home, yeah, yeah
It ain't Christmas
If I sit at home without you
Pray that you'd be the gift the angels bring
