Christmas Is Not The Same

Описание: VERSE 1
The lights are hanging crooked
On this dusty little tree
I’m staring out the window
Like the past is calling me
I can almost hear the laughter
The midnight hymns we used to sing
But now I feel the quiet
And it cuts like winter wind

PRE-CHORUS
You’d hold my hand
In that old church pew
Silent night never sounded
As holy as it did next to you

CHORUS
‘Cause Christmas is not the same when I’m in Texas and you ain’t
Every star in the sky feels a little more distant
And every memory hurts just the same
I’m unwrapping the moments
But they don’t shine like they did
Christmas is not the same when I’m in Texas and you ain’t

VERSE 2
Mama’s got the table set
Same dishes every year
But the chair that used to hold you
Just reminds me you’re not here
I still make your favorite cider
Just to smell the way it used to feel
But traditions lose their magic
When the missing becomes real

PRE-CHORUS 2
I replay old words
Like a worn-out tape
If love could cross the miles
I’d be standing at your gate

CHORUS
‘Cause Christmas is not the same when I’m in Texas and you ain’t
I keep waiting for footsteps I know will not come
And the silence keeps whispering your name
I’m unwrapping the moments
That the distance stole away
Christmas is not the same when I’m in Texas and you ain’t

BRIDGE
Maybe next December
Our hearts won’t be apart
Maybe next time the miles won’t win
What belongs to the heart
Till then I’ll hang your stocking
Though it hurts too much to say
Some goodbyes echo louder
On a holy holiday

FINAL CHORUS
‘Cause Christmas is not the same when I’m in Texas and you ain’t
I’d trade every twinkling light for the warmth of your face
No present could ever replace
All the memories we made
And the love that remains
Christmas is not the same when I’m in Texas and you ain’t

TAG
I’m counting down the minutes
Till Christmas brings you home
