Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
Deep in December, the year has grown old The days have grown dark and the nights have turned cold And the hurts that we harbor, the debts that we owe Are sleeping down under a blanket of snow It covers the grasses, the bench in the park The scars in the earth where man's made his mark And high in the sky there's an unearthly glow Like a miracle sent to delight us below And all our cares seem immaterial Beneath a light so ethereal As if all our wrongs could be made right Oh darling, under the northern lights We wound and we're wounded by the tiniest acts We run from our ghosts and we cover our tracks And we try to make up for mistakes that we've made With presents and parties and Christmas parades But I'm tired of the running, I'm taking my leave And the fire's burning low on this cold Christmas Eve All that I have is this evening to spend All that I want is to hold you again To linger awhile in the mystery To know the gift that's been given me Just to lie beside you this Christmas night Oh darling, under the northern lights
