Lyrics
Snow falling, kids calling
These Hallmark days used to fit me like a glove.
Not this year. It's all too clear
You're the only present I'll be thinking of
(CHORUS)
Here it comes again
Looks like the same Christmas
But the same Christmas never
Felt like it was pretend
Oh, it's not the same Christmas
It could never be the same without you
Fairy lights burn so bright
Presents wrapped and packages sent on their way
The wreath is hung, cards are done
Still it all means nothing when you're far away
(CHORUS)
And here it comes again (here it comes again)
It looks like the same Christmas
But the same Christmas never
Felt like it was pretend (like it was pretend)
Oh it's not the same Christmas
It could never be the same without you
(BRIDGE)
All I need is to hear one voice at my front door
And the light that's missing won't be missing any more
(CHORUS)
And here it comes again (here it comes again)
It looks like the same Christmas
But the same Christmas never
Felt like it was pretend (like it was pretend)
Oh, it's not the same Christmas
It could never be the same without you
(Repeat, then repeat final line)
