silent lights Lyrics

The lights are hanging in the window

But they don't shine the way they used to

The snow falls softly but it's cold this year

Colder than I've ever known

The carolers are singing on the street

But their joy feels out of reach

There's an empty chair by the fire tonight

And I'm here wondering why

Christmas used to be so bright

Now I'm lost in silent nights

Every sparkle every song

Feels like a place where I don't belong

The world is dancing full of cheer

But all I feel is you're not here

Oh Christmas doesn't feel the same

Since you slipped away

I see your face in every glow

Memories wrapped in mistletoe

The tree is trimmed but it doesn't shine

Not without your hand in mine

I hear the laughter I see the joy

But there's a part of me they can't destroy

I smile and nod but deep inside

I'm hiding where the hurt resides

Christmas used to be so bright

Now I'm lost in silent nights

Every sparkle every song

Feels like a place where I don't belong

The world is dancing full of cheer

But all I feel is you're not here

Oh Christmas doesn't feel the same

Since you slipped away

The world keeps turning the season comes around

But I'm still searching for what can't be found

I'll light a candle I'll say your name

But the warmth won't ever be the same

Christmas used to be so bright

Now I'm lost in silent nights

Every sparkle every song

Feels like a place where I don't belong

The world is dancing full of cheer

But all I feel is you're not here

Oh Christmas doesn't feel the same

Since you slipped away

The lights are hanging in the window

But they don't shine the way they used to

This season's made for someone else

I'll just keep you to myself
