Christmas Prayer

(album: Still Rising - The Collection - 2021)

Darling, it's that time of year
When everybody's full of love
So what the hell we think of?
Oh darling (darling), don't let it disappear
We've gotta give this one more try (give it one more chance)
My one last wish runs out tonight

And I can't wait, I can't wait, can't wait any longer
This aching heart is getting stronger
I know the way to make it all better
Back at the place we got together

Say that you'll meet me there
You're my wish, you're my Christmas prayer
Snowflakes falling in my hair and I ain't going anywhere
Say that you'll meet me there
You're my wish, you're my Christmas prayer
Santa's coming, I don't care
All I wanna know is will you be there?
Say that you'll meet me there
La la la la la

I guess we've done a lot of drifting apart
And I know there's a weight on your heart
Gonna take all my mistletoe (mistletoe, mistletoe)
And I'm not gonna let you go
I'm taking every step as fast as I can
To get me back to you
Hoping you'll feel the same
Bringing the magic rain

And I can't wait, I can't wait, can't wait any longer
This aching heart is getting stronger
I know the way to make it all better
Back at the place where we got together

Say that you'll meet me there
You're my wish, you're my Christmas prayer
Snowflakes falling in my hair and I ain't going anywhere
Say that you'll meet me there
You're my wish, you're my Christmas prayer
Santa's coming, I don't care
All I wanna know is will you be there?
Why can't every Christmas be the same
When I write my list, I write your name
Now I'm only wishing that you'll stay
Say that you'll meet me there
You're my wish, you're my Christmas prayer
Snowflakes falling in my hair
And I ain't going anywhere
