Lyrics
In December
When the darkness falls
So early in the day
And the stars light up the silent sky
Shadows run away
The north wind hums a melody
It's solstice lullaby
In December, I still believe in love
I remember
The years we shared
Christmas's of past
Celebrations reflected in
Each ornamental glass
Every snowflake holds a memory
That melts away too fast
I remember and still believe in love
I still believe in Santa's bells
And the angels up above
I still believe in Winter's magic dust
I still believe that dreams come true
When we wish upon a star
And In December
I still believe in love
Like the ember
By the fireside
That rose and shone so bright
Too soon descending, surrendering
It's brilliant breath of life
We couldn't know that someday comes
Much sooner than we planned
For the ember
I still believe in love
I still believe in Santa's bells
And the angels up above
I still believe in Winter's magic dust
I still believe that dreams come true
When we wish upon a star
And In December
Even though you're gone
In December
I still believe in love
