Christmas Spirits

Verse
There's a cold December wind, beneath the city lights,
Walking down these snow-covered streets tonight,
The faces that I see, they're a mix of old and new,
But in the quiet of my heart, I'm longing for a few.

Chorus
Oh, the ghosts of Christmas past, they linger in the air,
Faces in the rearview mirror, like whispers of a prayer.
The ones who walked beside me, on this road so long,
Gone but not forgotten, in the verses of this song.

Verse
Through the years, like snowflakes, they've drifted far away,
But their echoes in my memories, like a record that will play.
The friends and lovers, family now beyond the bend,
I raise a glass to their spirits, my dear and absent friends.

Chorus
Oh, the ghosts of Christmas past, they dance around the fire,
The embers of our stories, burning and lifting us higher.
To the ones who shaped my journey, though they may be gone,
I carry them in my heart, as I sing this Christmas song.

Bridge
A toast to the laughter, the tears, the love we used to share,
In the tapestry of life, they left their threads woven there.
Though the faces may have changed, and time has had its say,
Their presence is a beacon in my heart every Christmas day.

Verse
So here I sit, under the mistletoe with a gentle glow,
Remembering the faces of the ones who had to go.
In this season of joy, I celebrate their love and grace,
Wishing peace and love to them, wherever their place.

Chorus
Oh, the ghosts of Christmas past, they're singing in the night,
A symphony of memories, under this pale moonlight.
To the ones who've crossed the river, into the great unknown,
May you find eternal Christmas, in a place that's your own.

Outro
As I trim this Christmas tree and the snow begins to fall,
I'll keep the flame alive for those who've heard a different call.
Merry Christmas to the ones I've loved, and to the ones I miss,
In the tapestry of time, they're forever sealed with a kiss.
