Missing You at Christmas
The house is full of Christmas cheer,
An angel tops the tree,
Cinnamon smells pervade the air,
But you're not here with me.
An angel tops the tree,
Cinnamon smells pervade the air,
But you're not here with me.
An eggnog glass is held on high,
And offered up in toast,
Gifts are piled beneath the tree,
But I miss what I want most.
And offered up in toast,
Gifts are piled beneath the tree,
But I miss what I want most.
The festive lights are sparkling,
Holly garlands are in place,
In the softly twinkling candlelight,
I always see your face.
Holly garlands are in place,
In the softly twinkling candlelight,
I always see your face.
In the joyful songs of carolers,
At this time when all rejoice,
My heart can't feel its fullest,
I so long to hear your voice.
At this time when all rejoice,
My heart can't feel its fullest,
I so long to hear your voice.
As Christmas day dawns again,
My thoughts are far from here,
My love is festooned with a bow,
And sent to someone dear.
My thoughts are far from here,
My love is festooned with a bow,
And sent to someone dear.
