Lyrics
If I Can't Sing with You This Christmas
Bev Barnett & Greg Newlon
Here I am - its midway through December
Coldest year I think I can remember
Sitting by the fire, I got a chill when I heard you say
You might not make it back by Christmas day
Tree is up, the lights are softly twinkling
Close my eyes, and in my heart I'm dreaming
Hand in hand we?re caroling at every open door
Just like we?ve done so many times before
If I can?t sing with you this Christmas
There might as well not be snow
I'll hear your voice in the whisper of the evergreens
I'll see your eyes in the candle?s glow
?cause darling in your song, right or wrong
I've found my only home
If I can?t sing with you this Christmas
At least I'll know I?m never alone
Every year, far back as i remember
Here we?d sit, mid-way through December
Singing ?round the fire, i got a chill when you touched my hand
It took me until now to understand
If I can?t sing with you this Christmas
There might as well not be snow
I'll hear your voice in the whisper of the evergreens
I'll see your eyes in the candle?s glow
?cause darling in your song, right or wrong
I've found my only home
If I can?t sing with you this Christmas
At least I'll know I?m never alone
And though you?re far away i can hear your harmony
It warms the winter chill and leaves your love reminding me
That in your song, right or wrong
I've found my only home
If I can?t sing with you this Christmas
At least I?ll know I'm never alone
If I can?t sing with you this Christmas
At least I?ll know ...
I'm never alone
I'm never alone
