lyrics
Walking through this crowded street, people are laughing with no sign of tears
Happiness and cheer, I guess it’s just that time of year
A year’s gone by in a blink of an eye, just like a shooting star across the night sky
You’ve been the one thing on my mind; forever you and I
As the lights light up the skyline, you’ve got me on my knees, praying you’re the one for me
There’s no room for goodbyes, I’m not gonna be alone this holiday
I wish you were home tonight, and you were by my side
Because I’ve been so lost without you (so lost without you),
I wish you were home tonight, and you’d be by my side
Because all I really want is you (all I really want is you)
This year’s Christmas, ain’t Christmas without you
You’ve got a way to make me smile
The way you make me feel
You make me feel alive inside
Nothing can replace you even if I tried
Not even the strongest of tides
Please say that you’re coming home tonight
It’s not the same without you
I want you here, I need you here tonight
I wish you were home tonight, and you’d be by my side
Because all I really want is you
This year’s Christmas, ain’t Christmas without you
I’m coming home tonight, and I’ll be by your side
All I really want is you; all I really want is you,
I’m coming home tonight, and I’ll be by your side
I’ve been so lost without you, so lost without you
This year’s Christmas ain’t Christmas without you
