Somewhere in, in the distant night
I hear Christmas bells
A gentle snow keeps falling down
On people who, who are homeward bound


That's the way it's always been
The circle never really ends
Christmas seems to come and go
Homes a place that I don't know


Holly leaves and Christmas trees
It's that time of year
Lights aglow and mistletoe
Don't mean a thing when you're not here


As I walk, walk this lonely street
The sound of snow beneath my feet
I think of how, how it used to be
And holly leaves and Christmas trees


Used to mean so much to me
(Holly leaves and Christmas trees)
