Flickering lights, like the stars in your eyes
Wish I could see 'em before I close mine
All the lovers hold hands, say they don't understand
Why I'd pick one so far from where I am
No more tears on Christmas eve
You said not to cry
'Cause you'll be here
Somewhere next year
When we're able to fly
I'll be waiting through dark days
And long & lonely nights
In your sweatshirt, wrapping presents
Hoping this time, they'll arrive
Oh otherwise, you'll get them
Somewhere next year
Mom would spoil you mad
You'd talk sports with my dad
Just to picture it, makes me sad but
No more tears on Christmas eve
You said not to cry
'Cause you'll be here
Somewhere next year
When we're able to fly
I'll be waiting through dark days
And long & lonely nights
In your sweatshirt, wrapping presents
Hoping this time, they'll arrive
Oh otherwise, you'll get them
Somewhere next year
I'll be waiting through dark days
And long & lonely nights
In your sweatshirt, wrapping presents
Hoping this time, they'll arrive
Oh otherwise, you'll get them
Somewhere next year
Somewhere next year
