Hearts Can Break at Christmas Too

Joy to the world
It's a beautiful night
The trees all dressed up in green and red lights
The very first snowfall
As people deck their halls
It's peaceful and lovely I'm told
And yet there's a heartbeat outside
Shivering alone in the cold
Still, as a statue of ice
Like someone has taken his soul
And I wonder if anyone sees
And I wonder if anyone knows

It's harder to sing when you can't find a reason
It's harder to smile with no hope for the season
You try but can't follow through
The whole world consumed with the getting and giving
Forget all the others concerned with just living
What's it matter when its not you
Hearts can break at Christmas too

Oh holy night
The moon like a searchlight
Blinding her on her way home
There's no on inside
And she doesn't know why
Someones missing and she cries alone
And I wonder if anyone hears
And I wonder if anyone knows

It's harder to sing when you can't find a reason
It's harder to smile without hope for the season
You try but can't follow through
The whole world consumed with the getting and giving
Forget all the others concerned with just living
What's it matter when its not you
Hearts can break at Christmas too

On Christmas Eve who's ever thinking of tears
And those who are facing their fears
I never did until it was me

It's harder to sing when you can't find a reason
It's harder to smile without hope for the season
And I'm missing you
I'm missing your smile and I miss your heart beating
I'm missing your eyes and the warmth of your greeting
And I don't know what to do
Hearts can break at Christmas
Make mistakes at Christmas
Hearts they break at Christmas too
