lyrics

The city sleeps awaiting the dawn
The motions are there but the magic is gone
and I don’t know what I grieve
Maybe just another lonely Christmas Eve

CHORUS
The silent snow falls and I long to be real
the spirit I know is there but cannot feel
And the homeless and bar flies are keeping tabs
Icicle lights and taxi cabs

The carolers sing their last refrain
Happy couples board a frozen train
I walk ten miles, twenty, I can’t be sure
But it’s amazing how much I can endure

CHORUS
And somewhere in the night a king is born
a blessing to this world of mourn
and the wounds of the last are tender still
and I’ve a need that only you can fill

Every song about love as bitter as the frost
It’s like a Christmas for the lost
Just waiting for peace to take the lead
It would be a silent night indeed
