I got what you gave me last year It's in my room You did so much better than me You know it too It's Christmas time before we know it It's Christmas Eve and we're trying to enjoy it We're slipping away in candles when morning comes I'm thinking that it's different this year I think we got enough cheer I know the fire is warm I know you hold me tighter Than you ever have before I think it's different this time I think that we'll be alright I know that I believe The empty boxes thrown across the floor Don't mean a thing We knew how to find the magic When we were kids No care in the world, just laughing And learning tricks And Christmas time was upon us Christmas Eve and the tree was enormous We knew how to find the magic We let it in I'm thinking that it's different this year I think we got enough cheer I know the fire is warm I know you hold me tighter Than you ever have before I think it's different this time I think that we'll be alright I know that I believe The empty boxes thrown across the floor Don't mean a thing to me I'm thinking that it's different this year I think we got enough cheer I know the fire is warm I know you hold me tighter Than you ever have before I think it's different this time I think that we'll be alright I know that I believe The empty boxes thrown across the floor Don't mean a thing
