Remember last Christmas Eve When we sat next to our first tree Ornaments reflected light Of a candle in the night And I gave you a music box Back then that seemed like so much We watched it go round and round As the melodies unwound But all these things are now long gone And not to be wished upon again But the music box continues to turn The candle in the window continues to burn But I know they're just memories Like Christmas past and you and me Remember that old fireplace That held the room in warm embrace And as we watched for Christmas ghosts The fire held the shadows close But now upon that Christmas scene The candle wax of melted dreams And ornaments of shattered glass Now belonging to the past But all these things are now long gone And not to be wished upon again But the music box continues to turn The candle in the window continues to burn But I know they're just memories Like Christmas past and you and me I miss you baby Oh yes, I do And it's been far too long Since I last laid eyes on you I got the lights upon the Christmas tree I got the candle lit for you to see And beside this window I will wait For inside this night it's not too late I got the lights Up on the tree They're shining bright If you'd just believe Just believe with me The candles burning You know I'm gonna wait The clock keeps turning But I know it's not I know it's not too late I got the lights upon the Christmas tree I got the candle lit for you to see And beside this window I will wait For inside this night I know it's not too late
