It's the longest night of the year The days are getting shorter, the nights are getting longer and I Can already feel the snow The holidays are getting closer, and we're all one year older than the last Time goes by so fast It's the longest night of the year and I can't feel the cheer It's the longest night of the year and I wish you were here The cookies are baked and my heart aches But I can feel you here with us and hold on to the sound Of your laughter in the air The present are wrapped and the table is set But all I want to do is nap and remember the best of times It all seems like a dream December can bring on the best of the woes As the cold sets in and the darkness grows But with you by my side I know we'll be alright You warm me like a fire till my happiness shows, when you hold me close It's the longest night of the year, I'm so glad I've got you here For the longest night of the year, to help me feel the cheer On the longest night, we are the light that keeps the memories burning bright
