Trans-Siberian Orchestra - Music Box Blues lyrics

rate me

Remember last Christmas Eve

When we sat next to our first tree

Ornaments reflected light

Of a candle in the night

And I gave you a music box

Back then that seemed like so much

We watched it go round and round

As the melodies unwound

But all these things are now long gone

And not to be wished upon again

But the music box continues to turn

The candle in the window continues to burn

But I know they're just memories

Like Christmas past and you and me

Remember that old fireplace

That held the room in warm embrace

And as we watched for Christmas ghosts

The fire held the shadows close

But now upon that Christmas scene

The candle wax of melted dreams

And ornaments of shattered glass

Now belonging to the past

But all these things are now long gone

And not to be wished upon again

But the music box continues to turn

The candle in the window continues to burn

But I know they're just memories

Like Christmas past and you and me

I miss you baby

Oh yes, I do

And it's been far too long

Since I last laid eyes on you

I got the lights upon the Christmas tree

I got the candle lit for you to see

And beside this window I will wait

For inside this night it's not too late

I got the lights

Up on the tree

They're shining bright

If you'd just believe

Just believe with me

The candles burning

You know I'm gonna wait

The clock keeps turning

But I know it's not

I know it's not too late

I got the lights upon the Christmas tree

I got the candle lit for you to see

And beside this window I will wait

For inside this night

I know it's not too late
