Lyrics
Chorus
Every window glows with laughter, every table set for two
But I sit staring at December, wishing there was me and you
Kind heart waiting for a gentle touch
Every year alone just hurts that much
Post-Chorus
Silent room, silent phone
Oh, I still hope
La la la, la la la
Verse 2
Snow falls on my doorstep, footsteps only ever mine
Years have passed in quiet longing, dreams not bound by time
Set the table for a stranger, pour a drink for just a friend
But kindness can’t fill longing, when the season comes again
Pre-Chorus
Candles flicker in the window, warmth I never hold
Letters never written, stories never told
Chorus
Every window glows with laughter, every table set for two
But I sit staring at December, wishing there was me and you
Kind heart waiting for a gentle touch
Every year alone just hurts that much
Post-Chorus
Silent room, silent phone
Oh, I still hope
La la la, la la la
Bridge
Years I traced a vision, hoped the door might open wide
Left a note beside my pillow, just in case love came inside
But every year we circled ‘round, another missing face
Miracles for others, but never took place
Chorus
Every window glows with laughter, every table set for two
But I sit staring at December, wishing there was me and you
Kind heart waiting for a gentle touch
Every year alone just hurts that much
Post-Chorus
Empty chair, empty hall
Still I recall
La la la, la la la
Outro
There was never such a you, no footsteps on my floor
Seasons pass with hope undone, just like the ones before
Kindness fills a quiet room, but echoes never stay
I wish you’d walked into my life, but you never found your way
