Maybe This Christmas

I've been running all my life

I've been trying to get it right

Sentimentally, the thing I do well

But it's Christmas time again

And I'm missing all my friends

A million miles away, a toast to their health

Now it's a shot out in the dark

I'm just wishing on a star

And I wish I knew just what to do

Lord, I think I need your light

On this cold and silent night

I'm just hanging on, it's all that I can do

And all the snow falling down on the city

And the good souls below

It ain't the same when it comes down

And turns into rain

'Cause it's Christmas time

I can't be alone

It's been running through my mind

And no matter how I try

When the bells of old saint Pat's start to ring

It's so hard for me to hear

Be alone this time of year

And the bitterness that this cold can bring

Now as I'm sitting in the dark

And it's falling all apart

I'll be lighting up a candle for you

Yeah, it's hard to be alone

I wish you joy and peace and hope

Wish you all the love that your heart can hold

And all the snow falling down on the city

And the good souls below

It ain't the same when it comes down

And turns into rain

'Cause it's Christmas time

Shouldn't be alone again

Maybe this Christmas

Don't have to be alone again
