Lyrics A Hard Year's Christmas - JOHNNYSWIM

A Hard Year's Christmas

Have you been waiting?
Have you been holding your breath?
A heart is behind us
And God only knows what comes next
Anticipation
What used to thrill and delight
Now feels like the dark
Like the ache of that silent night
Here angels carol on
They sing of peace and joy
So now let’s lean in close
And listen
'Cause just like manger holds
A holy breath of hope
We all are heaven’s home
To live in
So give into wonder and give into rest
We only have so many Christmases left
Mmh
Look to the children
Look how they love to believe
I wanna be like them
And I don’t see why I can’t be
There for season
Can’t break our darkness with light
It’s the one where the weary rejoice
On that silent night
Here angels carol on
They sing of peace and joy
Now let’s lean in close
And listen
Just like the manger holds
That live in breath of home
We all are heaven’s home
To live in
Give into wonder and give into rest
We only have so many Christmases left
Mmh
Sing with the angels
Sing with the angels
Gloria, in excelsis Deo
We only have so many Christmases left
