Wishes and daydreams don't make Christmas
Though snowflakes can make a Christmas scene
We could spend our whole lives wondering
Just how different things might have been
You say you wrote me at Christmas
Telling how much you still cared
Begging me come back and love you one more time
Maybe pick up life we once shared
But I never got that letter
So never guessed the thoughts inside your head
Never got to read the words you say you wrote
So never knew what was really said
Wishes and daydreams don't make Christmas
Though snowflakes can make a Christmas scene
I never got to read the letter you sent
Nor to dwell on what might have been
Now someone else's perfume fills your bedroom
Someone else's shoes thrown by your bed
Someone else's head rests on your pillow
Where once I used to lay my head
Someone else is in your arms now
Someone else fills the empty space
Someone else's perfume colours your life
Someone else has taken my place
Wishes and daydreams don't make Christmas
Though snowflakes can make a Christmas scene
I never got to read the letter you sent
Nor to dwell on what might have been
Since I learned the news of your letter
I wondered how our lives might have been
But I'm happy I was just a player on your stage
Though the part played out first scene
And I didn't spend my life regretting
No staring at walls and empty space
I didn't sit around just waiting for you
And someone really special took your place
Wishes and daydreams don't make Christmas
Though snowflakes can make a Christmas scene
We could spend our whole lives wondering
Just how different things might have been
Wishes and daydreams don't make Christmas
But wondering can last a lifetime long
Truly no regrets your letter never came
For it turned out best for everyone
Best for everyone
Best for everyone
Best for everyone
No regrets. Best for everyone
No regrets, no regrets, truly no regrets, truly no regrets
Truly no regrets, no regrets
Truly no regrets
