The Longest Night Of The Year

They say that spring will come again

No one knows exactly when.

Still the sun's a long lost friend

On the longest night of the year.

We stare into the firelight

While December beats outside

Where the darkest hearts reside

On the longest night of the year

So keep me safe and hold me tight

Let the candle burn all night

Tomorrow welcome back the night

It was longest night of the year

I used to think the world was small

Bright and shining like a ball

Seems I don't know much at all

On the longest night of the year

We press our faces to the glass

And see our little lives go past

Wave to shadows that we cast

On the longest night of the year

So keep me safe and hold me tight,

Let the candle burn all night,

Tomorrow welcome back the light.

'Twas the longest night of the year

Make a vow when Solstice comes:

To find the Light in everyone

Keep the faith and bang the drum

On the longest night of the year

So keep me safe and hold me tight,

Let the candle burn all night,

Tomorrow welcome back the light.

'Twas the longest night of the year

So keep me safe and hold me tight,

Let the candle burn all night,

Tomorrow welcome back the light.

After the longest night of the year
