lyrics

Another Christmas has come
My children are so happy
They're in my home waiting by the fire
Waiting for their daddy to come home

So I left the party early
Got inside my car
Turned on the radio
And listened to the song of Jesus

While on my way home
I saw something kind of sad
A man on a bench
He soaks in a stench
In his lonely trench
He ain't got no friends

So I rolled down my window to wish him a happy Christmas
But then to me he slurred
I didn't catch a word
But from his eyes I heard

That Christmas can be so lonely
When you've no family
When you've no friends
And the only snowflakes I see
Are the tears that I cry
Such a cold Christmas

And the only snowflakes I see
Are the tears that I cry
Such a cold Christmas

I got out of my car and I opened the door for him
I said come with me love's deportee
I'll set you free
I'll take you home

And we drove on deep into the woods
And I held him tight
He put up no fight
He went home this night

Christmas can be so lonely
When you've no family
When you've no friends
And the only snowflakes I see
Are the tears that I cry
Such a cold Christmas

Another Christmas has come
My children are so happy
I look up to the stars above
And a snowflake falls gently in my eye
