STANDING BY MY CHRISTMAS TREE
Written by Cara Dillon and Sam Lakeman
Standing by my Christmas Tree
Wishing you were here with me
The snow is falling everywhere
But it’s not ok when you’re not there
Lonely footprints in the snow
Where they’ll lead nobody knows
I feel the frost beneath my feet
And the Angels breath upon my cheek
Chorus:
Silent night, Holy night
Can you hear the carollers singing in the night
Silent night, Holy night
Let their voices guide you from the darkness to the light
Walking down St Michael’s Street
Where once you swept me off my feet
I’ve traced these steps a thousand times
Always hoping for a sign
So Christmas Eve is here again
Glad tidings and goodwill to men
I’ll always keep you in my heart
You’ve been there from the very start
Chorus
