Hanging up our stockings
Wishing you were knocking at the door
And the snow keeps falling
I can’t see your footprints anymore

Hear the choir on the corner
But the songs they sing don’t sound as sweet
All the gifts are in order
But there’s something missing by the tree

I keep a light on
Stay up late just in case
You got a flight home
I don’t wanna wait

It ain’t Christmas until
Your coat is at the door
It ain’t Christmas until
You’re here to keep me warm
These silver lights don’t shine as bright

When I'm here on my own
It ain’t Christmas until
Until you’re coming home
Until you’re coming home

Waiting up by the window
Hoping soon in the distance I see lights
Getting bright as you drive close
My only wish is holding you tight

This kind of weather is better when we are together
Tuck in the house painting cards on the wall in your sweater

I keep a light on
Stay up late just in case
You got a flight home
I don’t wanna wait

'Cause it ain’t Christmas until
Your coat is at the door
It ain’t Christmas until
You’re here to keep me warm
These silver lights don’t shine as bright

When I'm here on my own
It ain’t Christmas until
Until you’re coming home
Until you’re coming home

There’s a knock at the front door
Open up and I see you standing there
Pick me up and it’s simple
Oh, I swear

It ain’t Christmas until
Your coat is at the door
It ain’t Christmas until
You’re here to keep me warm
These silver lights don’t shine as bright

When I'm here on my own
It ain’t Christmas until
Until you’re coming home
Until you’re coming home
