Текст песни
The fire's burning low, and laughter fills the air,
I watch their shadows dancing - love is everywhere.
Outside the window, snowflakes fall so slow,
But the warmth I feel inside me isn't mine to know.
There's music in the hallway, and candles in the glass,
I smile at every stranger, but the feeling never lasts.
It's Christmas Eve in the ski lodge,
And I'm just a ghost in the glow,
Watching the world wrapped in ribbons and promise,
While I stand alone in the snow.
They toast to love and forever,
I raise my cup to the cold,
Christmas Eve in the ski lodge -
Has never felt so old.
A couple by the fire, her head on his chest,
They don't see me staring - and maybe that's best.
The choir's singing softly down the mountain road,
But my heart's still half-empty from the love I let go.
The wind hums through the rafters,
Like it's trying to say my name,
But the echo only answers,
And it all sounds just the same.
It's Christmas Eve in the ski lodge,
And I'm just a ghost in the glow,
Watching the world wrapped in ribbons and promise,
While I stand alone in the snow.
They toast to love and forever,
I raise my cup to the cold,
Christmas Eve in the ski lodge -
Has never felt so old.
Maybe next year I'll find her,
Maybe she's lost somewhere too,
Under a sky full of memories,
Dreaming of someone she knew.
It's Christmas Eve in the ski lodge,
And I'm learning to let it be,
Love's a candle that flickers and fades,
But it still means the world to me.
So here's to the ones who are waiting,
And to hearts that never quite heal,
Christmas Eve in the ski lodge -
Is lonely... but real.
