After midnight, late December... candles all around

But nothing is the same since you’ve gone

I recall the nights so tender... dreaming, safe and sound

Lately I’m remembering every one

I’ve got all my favorite records playing... snow is falling down

Still, nothing is the same since you’ve gone

Everywhere the old familiar sayings... And happy, humming crowds

Am I the only one without a song?

Could it be the angels saw a different love for me

Could there be a sign among the stars

Should I try to leave behind this sentimental scenery

Would I even get that far

Maybe someday I’ll laugh about it... the year the holidays were blue

And every snowy evening seemed too long

In the wee hours of the morn I doubt it... my laughing days are through

Cause nothing is the same since you’ve gone

No... Nothing’s been the same since you’ve gone
