The lights on the tree don't shine like they used to do
This fire won't keep me warm, it's cold here without you
Four minutes far, a lifetime apart
The snow in the air is sweet, but it's not moving me
Christmas magic and melodies, still I cannot dream
Four minutes far, a lifetime apart
You told me I was your home
My vulnerable soul blindly believed it
You held me like you'd never go
My unguarded heart left broken and bleeding
You told me I was your home
My vulnerable soul blindly believed it
You held me like you'd never go
My unguarded heart left broken and bleeding
I never thought I'd be watching you leave me
I never thought I'd be watching you leave me
Oh I never thought I'd be watching you leave me
Why would you leave me
I pictured it in my mind, growing old with you
An imperfect, beautiful life oh the things that we would do
So close but so far
God, help my heart
Four minutes far, a lifetime apart
