CountrAI - Keepin' the Lights On This Christmas Lyrics

It's that time of year again
Snow falling down like it did back then
The world turns bright dressed in white
But something's missing from this night
I put the wreath upon the door
Like I've done so many times before
But there's an emptiness inside
Since you're not here this Christmastime

I hang each light with care
Pretending you're still there

Keepin' the lights on this Christmas
Though you're gone I'll shine them bright
Every twinkle tells a story
Of the love you left behind
Though the world feels a little darker
I'll let the glow remind me of you
Yeah keepin' the lights on this Christmas
Like you're walking through that door

I remember the laughter the cheer
How you made Christmas feel so near
The smell of pine the fire's glow
Every year you made it so
And even though you're not around
I hear your voice in every sound
Whispered in the winter wind
A gentle warmth that pulls me in

The memories shine like stars
Guiding me back to where you are

Keepin' the lights on this Christmas
Though you're gone I'll shine them bright
Every twinkle tells a story
Of the love you left behind
Though the world feels a little darker
I'll let the glow remind me of youyeah keepin' the lights on this Christmas
Like you're walking through that door

I see you in each candle's flame
In every song that calls your name
Your favorite ornaments on the tree
Little treasures you left for me
The stockings hung your chair left bare
Yet I feel you still everywhere
In every sparkle every shine
A piece of you this Christmastime

I know one day we'll meet again
But until then my dear old friend
I'll carry on I'll keep you near
With every light I hang each year

So here's to you my Christmas star
Guiding me no matter how far
In the quiet in the still
Your love surrounds me warm and real
And as the season comes and goes
I find you here in the lights that glow
A timeless love that won't depart
Forever glowing in my heart

Keepin' the lights on this Christmas
Though you're gone I'll shine them bright
Every twinkle tells a story
Of the love you left behind
Though the world feels a little darker
I'll let the glow remind me of you
Yeah keepin' the lights on this Christmas
Like you're walking through that door

Keepin' the lights on this Christmas
Keep em shining bright for you
Every twinkle tells a story
Of the love we still hold true
Though the world feels a little colder
The glow reminds me of you
Yeah keepin' the lights on this Christmas
Til the day I'm back with you
