See the lights upon the tree,
9 o’clock on Christmas Eve,
Can you hear the silence fall like snow this Christmas?
Though we ought to be back home,
And there’s places we should go,
Oh I just don’t want to be alone on Christmas Eve.

So don’t leave me,
Don’t say “you’ll see”,
Oh I just don’t want to be alone on Christmas Eve.

Hear the Christmas church bells ring,
Now it’s midnight on the green,
And a choir of drunkards walking home with Christmas cheer,
Now it’s late and time’s slipped by,
And we ought to say goodnight,
But I just don’t want to be alone on Christmas Eve.

So don’t leave me,
Don’t say “you’ll see”,
Oh I just don’t want to be alone on Christmas Eve,
So don’t drive home,
Don’t turn to leave,
Cos’ I just don’t want to be alone on Christmas Eve.

See the lights upon the tree,
9 o’clock on Christmas Eve,
Oh I just don’t want to be alone this Christmas.

Here’s a snow ball
Of your big beautiful island
Shake it til it snows
Or rains
I’ve made it for you
I heard you cry this morning
I know how much you miss swinging
The blue sea
Iorana
Until you do go back
You heart will not belong to me
Iorana
A thousand miles away
I’ll have to wave and say goodbye
Iorana
My lover couldn’t stay
Iorana
Until you do go back
You heart will not belong to me
Iorana
A thousand miles away
I’ll have to wave and say goodbye
Iorana
My lover couldn’t stay

We try and we try,
We kiss and we fight,
Our way through,
We're up late at night,
I'm losing my mind over you.

It’s wrong and it’s right,
We laugh and cry,
On and on and on,
Is this how it’s s’posed to be?

But sometimes I wonder if it’s better to let go,
Find a place more peaceful to call home.

But I will never leave,
As long as you're here with me,
The first time I saw you I knew,
I've waited a lifetime for you.

Been here for some time,
I'm yours and you're mine,
I know it’s true,
So tell me I'm fine,
I'm done with crying over you.

Sometimes I wonder if it’s better to let go,
Find a place more peaceful to call home.

But I will never leave,
As long as you're here with me,
The first time I saw you I knew,
I've waited a lifetime for you.
