Ornament

There is an ornament
Lost inside the night
There on a Christmas tree
With a thousand lights.

No one can see her
She's standing all alone.

Somewhere she glistens where no one can see.

I don't believe I can say what had happened
All of those words that we put into play
No longer matter, I should have known that then
I just know you're far away.

On this Christmas day
On this Christmas day
On this Christmas...

Somewhere the wind
Carves moments in the snow.

And if he sees her
He never lets it show
He just drifts behind her
Erasing every step.

Tinsel and garland are whispered through trees

I don't believe I can say what had happened
All of those words that we put into play
No longer matter, I should have known that then
I just know you're far away.

On this Christmas day
On this Christmas day
On this Christmas...

Come, Christmas
Stay, Christmas
Watch over her this day
Keep her
Protect her
From harm now in every way.

Shelter her
Gently
There in your arms she'll be
Until the day
When you
Bring her back home to me.

There is an ornament lost inside the night.
