[Verse 1]
Our days are gifts
Wrapped up in nights
In lonely abyss
Our bodies burn bright
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause the one is talkin' to us
And it sounds like God and Christmas
[Verse 2]

People we loved

(For you and me)
[Bridge]
There are some things that happened to you

But home is here where you are
With me and Christmas and God
[Chorus]
The lights on the tree

They don't go out
For you and me
For you and me
For you and me
For you and for me
[Outro]
They don't go out
Oh, they don't go out, no
They don't go out
They don't go out
They don't go out
For you and me
Oh no, they don't go out
For you and me
They don't go out
Oh, oh
