Song Lyrics

All the trees alight, all the holly streaming
The town has come to life, waiting for Christmas
I still feel low, searching for some meaning
Until you come home, I'm waiting for Christmas with you

Christmas without you, a long, dark shade of blue
I feel like I've been waiting here forever
All the gifts arrive, all the children singing
Gathered 'round the fire, waiting for Christmas
I could sing along, but I can't find the meaning
The melody feels wrong, I'm waiting for Christmas with you

Oh, when I see your face on this Christmas Day
I'll know the light of love brought us together
But until that hour, my eyes will be wide open
I'm like a little child, waiting for Christmas
When that morning comes, we can count our blessings
It was worth it all along, waiting for Christmas with you

Daniel Wilson, John Stephens, Raphael Saadiq
