I've been running all my life 00:09
I've been trying to get it right 00:12
sentimentally, a thing I do well 00:16
But it's Christmastime again 00:21
And I'm missing all my friends 00:25
A million miles away, a toast to their health 00:27
Now it's a shot out in the dark 00:33
I'm just wishing on a star 00:37
And I wish I knew just what to do 00:40
Lord, I think I need your light 00:46
On this cold and silent night 00:50
I'm just hanging on, it's all that I can do 00:53
And all the snow 01:01
Falling down on the city, and the good souls below 01:05
It ain't the same 01:14
When it comes down and turns into rain 01:19
'Cause it's Christmastime 01:25
I can't be alone again 01:28
You've been running through my mind 01:32
And no matter how I try 01:35
When the bells of Old St. Pat's start to ring 01:38
And it's so hard for me to hear 01:45
You're alone this time of year 01:48
And the bitterness that that cold must bring 01:51
And when you're sitting in the dark 01:57
And it's falling all apart 02:01
I'll be lighting up a candle for you 02:04
I know it's sad to be alone 02:10
I wish you joy and peace and hope 02:13
Wish you all the love that your heart can hold 02:17
And all the snow 02:25
Falling down on the city, and the good souls below 02:29
It ain't the same 02:38
When it comes down and turns into rain 02:42
'Cause it's Christmastime 02:49
Shouldn't be alone again 02:52
Maybe this Christmas 02:58
Don't have to be alone again 03:02

[English]
I've been running all my life
I've been trying to get it right
sentimentally, a thing I do well
But it's Christmastime again
And I'm missing all my friends
A million miles away, a toast to their health
Now it's a shot out in the dark
I'm just wishing on a star
And I wish I knew just what to do
Lord, I think I need your light
On this cold and silent night
I'm just hanging on, it's all that I can do
And all the snow
Falling down on the city, and the good souls below
It ain't the same
When it comes down and turns into rain
'Cause it's Christmastime
I can't be alone again
You've been running through my mind
And no matter how I try
When the bells of Old St. Pat's start to ring
And it's so hard for me to hear
You're alone this time of year
And the bitterness that that cold must bring
And when you're sitting in the dark
And it's falling all apart
I'll be lighting up a candle for you
I know it's sad to be alone
I wish you joy and peace and hope
Wish you all the love that your heart can hold
And all the snow
Falling down on the city, and the good souls below
It ain't the same
When it comes down and turns into rain
'Cause it's Christmastime
Shouldn't be alone again
Maybe this Christmas
Don't have to be alone again
