Christmas Miles Away Lyrics

The snow is falling where I am tonight,

But it doesn't feel like Christmas without you in sight.

I hung up the lights, I trimmed the tree,

But none of it shines when you're not here with me.

I'm staring at photos on my phone,

Of the laughter and love I used to own.

The stockings are empty, the halls are bare,

It's hard to celebrate when you're not there.

I'm miles away this Christmas Eve,

Wishing I could hold you close, but all I can do is grieve.

I hear the carols, but they're far from home,

'Cause nothing feels right when you're on your own.

The distance is heavy, and my heart's astray,

Spending Christmas miles away.

I know you're by the fire, sipping something warm,

While I'm wrapped in a coat, bracing for the storm.

I miss the smell of your cinnamon pies,

And the way your laugh would light up the skies.

I watch the snowflakes from my window fall,

But they don't bring cheer, no, not at all.

All I've got is a cold, empty room,

While you're gathered with family, I assume.

I'm miles away this Christmas Eve,

Wishing I could hold you close, but all I can do is grieve.

I hear the carols, but they're far from home,

'Cause nothing feels right when you're on your own.

The distance is heavy, and my heart's astray,

Spending Christmas miles away.

I'll send my love through the winter sky,

In hopes it reaches where you lie.

I'll hold on tight to the thought of you,

Even if the miles make it hard to get through.

So here's to next Christmas, when I'll be near,

To fill your days with holiday cheer.

But tonight, I'll just have to say,

I'm missing you from miles away.
