Susan Indest, Bryan Austin Cuevas - Ghost of Christmas Past Lyrics

Snow outside is swirling 'round in flurries
Neighbors sneak gifts from car to house
Their laughter rings out like church bells
Tiny ghosts of breath float from their mouths

"Jingle Bells" bounces from their radio
Boots keep the beat in crunching snow
Christmas tree framed in their window
Angel on high sings of hope

Our time together flew by fast
Christmas memories always last
I just want to be home for Christmas
Just me and the ghost of Christmas past

Our stockings hang from a plastic garland
Next to a ragged plastic tree
It's not how you would have done it
It's the best I can do without you next to me

A party invitation's on the table
Next to cards from the kids with photographs
But home's where I want to be on Christmas
Just me and the ghost of Christmas past

Our time together flew by fast
Christmas memories always last
I just want to be home for Christmas
Just me and the ghost of Christmas past

You loved to decorate, find the perfect gifts
You'd stay up all night to cook a feast
Your heart was so much bigger than Christmas
Forgive me Baby Jesus, that's how I feel

I'm fine here with my frozen turkey dinner
And cranberry gel from a can
Maybe tomorrow I'll phone the kids
Tonight I'm home with Christmas past

Our time together flew by fast
Christmas memories always last
I just want to be home for Christmas
Just me and the ghost of Christmas past

I'm alone but I'm not lonely
I'm with the ghost of Christmas past
