Mark Schultz - Different Kind of Christmas

Текст песни

Snow is falling Christmas Eve
Lights are coming on up and down the street
The sound of carols fills the air
And people rushing home, families everywhere
Are putting candles in the windows
Lights upon the tree
But there’s no laughter in this house
Not like there used to be
There’s just a million little memories
That remind me you’re not here
It’s just a different kind of Christmas this year
And in the evening, fires glow
Dancing underneath the mistletoe
A letter left from Santa Claus
Won’t be the same this year in this house because
There’s one less place set at the table
One less gift under the tree
And a brand new ache
To take their place inside of me
I’m unwrapping all these memories
Fighting back the tears
It’s just a different kind of Christmas this year
And there’s voices in the driveway
Family’s right outside the door
And we’ll try to make this Christmas
Like the ones we’ve had before
And as we gather round the table
I see joy on every face
And I realize what’s still alive
Is the legacy you made
It’s time to put the candles in the windows
The lights upon the tree
It’s time to fill this house with laughter
Like it used to be
Just because you’re up in heaven
Doesn’t mean you’re not near
It’s just a different kind of Christmas
It’s just a different kind of Christmas this year
