Lyrics

The Moon on Christmas Eve

When I see the moon on Christmas Eve
The winter sky so starry eyed
I think of heaven and everyone
So far away

If this night is for dreaming
For hearts remembering when
I hope that some day, some way
I'll see you again

In Merry Christmas land
I hope all wishes come true
The midnight chimes then silent night
Remind me of you
'Tis the season for believing
In miracles from above
'Tis the season for believing in love

Though snowflakes tickle my nose
And there's joy under the mistletoe
My heart beats wistfully on Christmas Eve

Chorus
