(To the one that I was missing) (To the one that I was missing) To the one that I was missing (To the one that I was missing) (To the one that I was missing) City lights are blinking in rhythm with December Every window glowing like it's trying to remember All the laughter, all the years Hot cocoa, wrapping paper, hidden tears There's a stocking by the fireplace With a little extra empty space I hung it there without a name But I feel you just the same Carols playing on the radio Familiar words I used to know But every harmony I sing Feels like it's missing one small thing I smile for every photograph Cut the tree and try to laugh Yet underneath the silver lining There's a quiet heart still pining All the ornaments still shine But something's different this time Every bell that softly rings Echoes what the winter brings You were the one that was missing The voice my heart keeps wishing In every snowflake falling down In every light across this town You were the warmth in the cold night air The silent answer to my prayer Now every star above is glistening But you're the one, the one that was missing (To the one that I was missing) (To the one that I was missing) To the one that I was missing (To the one that I was missing) (To the one that I was missing) Midnight mass and candlelight (oh-oh-oh) Faces glowing soft and bright (oh-oh-oh) I close my eyes and almost see You standing right in front of me Your coat still hanging by the door Your footsteps on the wooden floor Memories wrapped in gold and red All the little things you said The way you'd hum off-key While hanging lights up on the tree The way you'd always tease And kiss my cheek in winter breeze They say that time can heal the pain Like snow that washes clean the rain But some December wounds remain Like footprints frozen in my brain All the gifts beneath the tree Still don't feel complete to me Every choir that softly sings Leaves a space between the strings You were the one that was missing The voice my heart keeps wishing In every snowflake falling down In every light across this town You were the warmth in the cold night air The silent answer to my prayer Now every star above is glistening But you're the one, the one that was missing (To the one that I was missing) (To the one that I was missing) Maybe love don't disappear Maybe it just changes here Turns into a quiet glow In every falling flake of snow Maybe you're in every chime In every church bell keeping time Maybe heaven lets you see How much you still mean to me So I'll light a candle in your name Let it flicker through the flame Whisper softly through the night I'll be okay, I'll be alright Even if my heart keeps listening For the one that's always missing You were the one that was missing (oh, yeah) The voice my heart keeps wishing In every snowflake falling down (down, down, down, baby) In every light across this town You were the warmth in the cold night air (ooh) The silent answer to my prayer Now every star above is glistening But you're the one, the one that was missing Snow keeps falling, soft and slow Covering the world below Christmas comes, and carols sing (To the one that I was missing) This Christmas (To the one that I was missing) You're the one I was missing (To the one that I was missing) This Christmas (To the one that I was missing) You're the one I was missing This Christmas (To the one that I was miss) You're the one I was miss This Christmas (To the one that I was missing) You're the one I was missing To the one I miss
