Jingle Bells

Despina Vandi


Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells, Bells... 

Behind the snowy window pane 
I wait for you to come again 
long for my ship to come to shore 
but no-one's knocking at my door 

Children are chanting in the street. 
Love and togetherness they greet. 
'Come on ye faithful' they will sing 
but I don't feel the joy they bring.. 
My heart is darkened by the fear 
that you won't be with me this year 
and every single memory 
has made me wait, inside of me. 

Jingle bells, Jingle bells 

This Christmas Eve 
and joy full-time 
won't mean a thing 
if you are not mine. 

I lock the door 
turn off the light 
still hearing whispers in the night. 
one carol more, one last, will bring 
it's gonna melt my heart again.
