Verse 1
The snow fell soft on Christmas Eve,
The reindeer stood in line,
I hung his red coat by the door,
Like I had every time.
The elves were singing carols loud,
The workshop glowed with cheer,
But something felt so different then,
Like trouble drawing near.
I found a note beside the sleigh,
With trembling hands I read,
“Don’t wait up, my darling wife…”
And then my whole world bled.
Chorus
’Cause Santa ran away with the Easter Bunny,
Left the North Pole cold and dark.
He traded all our Christmas dreams
For springtime in his heart.
Now every Easter egg I see
Feels like another scar,
Who would’ve thought a rabbit could
Steal away my Christmas star?
Verse 2
The headlines spread from coast to coast,
The gossip never ceased,
How Santa rode through tulip fields
With that long-eared little beast.
The children cried, the elves resigned,
The reindeer lost their way,
No gifts were wrapped that winter night,
No joy on Christmas Day.
I burned the photos one by one,
Watched memories turn to ash,
The bunny’s footprints in the snow
Still haunt me when I crash.
Chorus
’Cause Santa ran away with the Easter Bunny,
Left the North Pole cold and dark.
He traded all our Christmas dreams
For springtime in his heart.
Now every Easter egg I see
Feels like another scar,
Who would’ve thought a rabbit could
Steal away my Christmas star?
Bridge
Then one cold morning years had passed,
A letter reached my door,
It said they’d settled far away
Upon a distant shore.
But fate can be a cruel old thing,
And love can disappear,
The Bunny left him for the Tooth Fairy
Just before New Year.
Santa died beside the sea,
Alone beneath the rain,
Holding one pink Easter egg
With my name still etched in grain.
Final Chorus
’Cause Santa ran away with the Easter Bunny,
And shattered all we knew.
He chased a dream across the world
That never would come true.
Now Christmas lights still shine each year,
Though tears fall from afar,
And somewhere in the winter sky
I still wish upon that star.
Who would’ve thought a rabbit could
Steal away my Christmas star…
Outro
The snow still falls on Christmas Eve…
But Santa never came home.
