Christmas in Your Eyes

I’ll send the letter, I’ll do it tonight Throughout the seasons I wrote it all down I’m telling you everything I wasn’t brave enough To say when you were around To say when there was still time I’ll walk up the mountain and take it to you And I’ll leave it on your doorstep where the snow melts time too As you do the unexpected and open the door I won’t be expecting to see you once more Ooh Ooh Christmas is breaking my heart Christmas is breaking my heart I walked past the place where we used to celebrate Birthdays together, well mine anyway And it got me, made me so blue To think I’ve used up all my time with you I’ll walk up the mountain, take this letter to you And leave it on your doorstep where snow melts, Time too But you won’t be there anymore I won’t be expecting to see you once more Christmas is breaking my heart Oh, Christmas is breaking my heart

You softly touch my hand, Say you’re sorry things haven’t gone our way You say you feel ashamed we have nothing But each other on this day Take the weight off your shoulders, Feel the magic in the air Where it counts we are the owners Of a perfect fairytale Christmas in your eyes I wouldn’t care for it without you Christmas in your eyes, It’s always there, for a heart that beats true And just like that, right there You touch me with your smile And everything around me comes alive I wouldn’t change a thing, my heart is overflown ‘cause next to you, Oh I just feel so strong Take the weight off your shoulders, Feel the magic in the air Where it counts we are the owners Of a perfect fairytale Christmas in your eyes I wouldn’t care for it without you Christmas in your eyes, It’s always there, for a heart that beats true Ah Ah Ah Christmas in your eyes I wouldn’t care for it without you Christmas in your eyes, It’s always there, for hearts that beat true

Te soñé en Navidad, como siempre Nada es diferente Excepto que hoy me hace más mal Porque la gente está tan sonriente Y se siente tan feliz Como si no notaran que no estás aquí Qué, no ven que las estrellas se resisten a brillar? Que las luces de los árboles muy tenues hoy están O acaso son mis ojos, acaso son mis ojos Los que no ven Navidad Viendo películas de esas Que nunca terminan mal Ignoro un poco a la tristeza, Pero ay cómo quisiera que se hicieran realidad Como si no notaran que no estás aquí Qué, no ven que las estrellas se resisten a brillar? Que las luces de los árboles muy tenues hoy están O acaso son mis ojos, acaso son mis ojos Los que no ven Navidad Yo no puedo cantar villancicos No puedo hacer pesebres con añicos De un pobre corazón Mi pobre corazón, pobre, pobre Pobre corazón Como si no notara que no estás aquí Y no viera a las estrellas resistiendose a brillar Que las luces de los árboles muy tenues hoy están O acaso son mis ojos Acaso son mis ojos Los que no ven Invisible Navidad Invisible Navidad Invisible Navidad

Si tuviera nieve, nieve en Navidad Hadas con bufanda vendrían a jugar De la punta de una estrella Traerían las luciérnagas De regalo una pestaña De aquel que ya no está Si tuviera nieve, nieve en Navidad Haría una escultura con hielo de cristal Que pareciera un ángel Que aprendería a volar Andaría en trineo Surcando la ciudad Doblaría la esquina Que exacto llevaría A todas las cosas Que ya no existen más Y si tuviera nieve, nieve en Navidad Congelaría todo para que en la eternidad Estuvieran todos, todos los que están Y no faltara nadie, nunca En Navidad Y no faltara nadie, nunca En Navidad

Wake up child within, Wake up little child You’ve been sleeping too long in the dark Wake up innocence, Wake up butterflies We’ll jump on this train Straight to Christmas town And we’ll jingle and jingle and Jingle and jingle and Jingle and jingle and Jingle the bells in our hearts Jingle and jingle and Jingle and jingle and Jingle the bells in our hearts Wake up wonderment, I’ve been jaded But the lights shine so bright it’s now time To get out of bed, glitter in one hand And throw it in the air as we dance, as we dance And we’ll jingle and jingle and Jingle and jingle and Jingle and jingle and Jingle the bells in our hearts Jingle and jingle and Jingle and jingle and Jingle the bells in our hearts It’s been hidden in the shadows But the child’s still alive And the dreaming is not broken It’s just waiting, wake it up! And we’ll jingle and jingle and Jingle and jingle and Jingle and jingle and Jingle the bells in our hearts Jingle and jingle and Jingle and jingle and Jingle the bells in our hearts
