One More Christmas

The snow is settling

on the sill

The frozen street

is quiet and still

I watch the kettle

on the stove

And count the hours we used to know

If I could ask for anything at all

Beneath the pine

against the parlor wall

I'd only wish

for one more quiet night

To hold your hand

in candlelight

Just one more Christmas with you

Your old wool coat is on the chair

I almost hear you

laughing

there

The paper star

upon the pine

Still catches every spark of mine

If I could ask

for anything at all

Beneath the pine

against the parlor wall

I'd only

wish

for one more quiet night

To hold your hand

in candlelight

Just one more Christmas

with you (with you)

Just one more quiet night

Beneath

the tree (ahhhh)
