Tom Walker For Those Who Can't Be Here

AlphabetLyrics.com

We put the lights up on the tree
And all the presents underneath
Light the fire it's getting cold
Another year of will it snow
Mixing lager and champagne
Something I'll never do again
'round the table banter flows
Praying no one rocks the boat.

Still I know this picture's not quite right
There's someone on your mind
First christmastime without him by your side, I know
The sound of christmas bells
They never say farewell
So we laugh, we shed a tear
For those who can't be here.

We're drinking sherry just because
Confessing all our christmas love
Watch home alone for the thousandth time
It's the only movie that we all like.

But I know this picture's not quite right
There's someone on my mind
First christmastime without him by our side, I know
He loved these christmas bells
Because they never say farewell
So we laugh, we shed a tear
For those who can't be here.

For those who can't be here
For those who can't be here
(The bells ring out for them, for those who can't be here)
(The bells ring out for them, for those who can't be here)
(The bells ring out for them, for those who can't be here)
(The bells ring out for them, for those who can't be here)
