for love on christmas day

wrote myself a letter, i told myself a lie, that you'll be coming home soon and then your name i sigh, i read it every morning since you went away, i'm living in a dream world and dying a little more each day, wrote myself a love song, believing every word, saying that you love me in melodies unheard, that you'll be coming back soon, and forever you will stay, i'm living in a dream world and dying a little more each day, snow is on the sidewalk, it's cold inside my heart, i look up and i wonder, have i lost my guiding star, and everything is white outside, how can it be so dark?, say a prayer and thank god that your love is mine alone, and never be another who could grace our happy home, pray on christmas morning that this time you will stay, but i'm living in a dream world and dying a little more each day, yes, i'm dying, for love on christmas day
