I saw snow for the first time this year
Looks like home 'til it all disappears
Mid-December, gets dark around five
I hate being alone without the light
I missed your call way back in August
I should have returned it right away
Now I'm alone, I wrap my own gifts
I should have convinced myself to stay
Oh and I miss my sweet grandfather
Christmas was always when he'd say
"Family should never leave each other"
Now I'm left alone for this holiday
Now I'm left alone for this holiday
City glows up, all green and red
Children excited lay awake in bed
Mothers and fathers, up through the night
I'm awake, but my day won't be as bright
I should have called you back in August
I should have invited you to stay
Now I'm alone, I wrap my own gifts
I shouldn't have ever moved away
Oh and I miss my sweet grandfather
Christmas was always when he'd say
"Family should never leave each other"
Now I'm left alone for this holiday
Now I'm left alone for this holiday
Sorry I've been absent
Can we throw the year away
I'll be better, I'll be home
Flights are cheap in May
Distance never was my plan
But life gets in the way
You won't miss me again
You won't be alone another holiday
You won't be alone another holiday
You won't be alone another holiday
