Lyrics

Until You Are Here - Tony Turner SOCAN

Daughter dear you’re far away and though we talk most every day
I long to have you near at this special time of year
But you called and said that you’re delayed and you may not be here Christmas Day
Through wind and cold and snow I’ll still be waiting here

If there’s one thing I believe on this stormy Christmas eve
It’s dreams can come true
But if the fates decide you can’t be by my side
The whiteness of this season will seem a little blue

Cuz it won’t be Christmas
It won’t be Christmas
Until you are here

The fireplace is burning bright, the table set with candlelight
Baking fills the air and stockings are hung up
The coloured lights in our front yard will greet you like a Christmas card
And welcome you back home to the ones you love

The tree is full of memories, the things you made when you were three
That made us proud
But there’s one thing left to do that we’ve done each year, just me and you
Place the golden star upon the highest bough

Cuz it won’t be Christmas
It won’t be Christmas
Until you are here

No it won’t be Christmas
It won’t be Christmas
Until you are here
