As I am getting older, years pass by quicker than before Summer's been and gone, now winter is knocking down the door As the weeks fly by and we're lining on the tree I will shed a tear this Christmas for how it used to be There's no fairy tales in New York No one turning up on a sleigh No stopping the cavalry this Christmas day And the radio still plays all the classic songs Without you by my side, I can't bear to sing along Coz it's not the same, this Christmas day There's a spare seat at the table And it's where you used to be All the tears that I have cried, cause I miss you inside But it's worse at Christmas time We must still have the lives And we always shared the love And we try to move on, to get on with our lives But we still have the hurt There's no fairy tales in New York No one turning up on a sleigh No stopping the cavalry this Christmas day And the radio still plays all the classic songs Without you by my side, I can't bear to sing along Coz it's not the same, this Christmas day There's no fairy tales in New York No one turning up on a sleigh No stopping the cavalry this Christmas day And the radio still plays all the classic songs Without you by my side, I can't bear to sing along Coz it's not the same, this Christmas day It's not the same, this Christmas day It's not the same, this Christmas day
