[Verse]
The stockings hang but the room feels bare
An empty chair
I see you there
The candles flicker but they can’t glow
Like your smile that lit the snow
[Chorus]
Merry Christmas in heaven
My dear
We’re holding on but wishing you were here
The lights twinkle less
The tree’s a mess
Still we feel your love in every breath
[Verse 2]
The carols play but the notes sound thin
A hollow echo where you’ve been
The cookies crumble
The cider’s cold
But your warmth is a story we’ve been told
[Prechorus]
You’re where God needed you to be
But it’s hard for us to see
[Chorus]
Merry Christmas in heaven
My dear
We’re holding on but wishing you were here
The lights twinkle less
The tree’s a mess
Still we feel your love in every breath
[Bridge]
The snowflakes whisper your name in the night
The stars align
Your face in their light
We send our love through the winter air
Hoping it finds you waiting there
