[Verse 1]
You left your jacket on the chair last year,
Still smells like laughter, like a world without the fear.
I play our records just to feel you near—
Your voice a memory in every chandelier.
The nights are glitter, but they’re cold as glass,
Reflecting pieces of a love I couldn’t grasp.
[Pre-Chorus]
Tell me, darling, do you see me from afar?
I’m sending wishes on a wounded star.
If longing had wings, I’d break the sky—
Just to find you… just to try.
[Chorus]
’Cause I keep crashing into Christmas lights,
Searching for your shadow in the silver nights.
You were the warmth inside my winter storms—
Now I’m a heartbeat lost and torn.
Oh, this love—
It burns, it breaks, it blinds…
I keep crashing into Christmas lights.
[Verse 2]
I walk the streets where we once used to dance,
Your hand in mine, a soft electric trance.
Now every window shows a life I fear—
One where you’re gone, and I’m still standing here.
The world keeps shining, but it’s bittersweet,
A lonely rhythm in the snowfall on my feet.
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh baby, can you hear me through the dark?
I’m stitching heartbreak into every spark.
I trace your name across the frozen air—
And pretend that you’re still there.
[Chorus]
’Cause I keep crashing into Christmas lights,
Searching for your shadow in the silver nights.
You were the warmth inside my winter storms—
Now I’m a heartbeat lost and torn.
Oh, this love—
It burns, it breaks, it blinds…
I keep crashing into Christmas lights.
[Bridge (Roxette-style emotional lift + guitar solo)]
Maybe time will turn this pain to gold,
Maybe angels whisper things I should’ve told.
But I’m still falling through this endless glow—
Trying to find you in the afterglow.
If love could fly beyond the snow…
I’d go, I’d go…
[Final Chorus (bigger, higher, powerful)]
Still I keep crashing into Christmas lights,
Hoping you’ll appear between the red and white.
You were the fire in my frozen veins—
Now I’m a melody built from aching chains.
Oh, this love—
It scars, it stings, it shines…
And I keep crashing into Christmas lights.
[Outro]
Yeah… searching for you
In these Christmas lights.
