There in the dark we lit a candle
 
 Carved nights like a totem
 
 Called time a silver spoon
 
 Voices in chorus, slicing the snow
 
 December's a cairn, stacked both joy and woe
 
  
  Softer on my mind, it doesn't have to be perfect to be right
 
 Afterall we felt a part, we felt a part of it
 
 You were the heart of it, you were the heart of it
  
 
 Sippin on mulled wine, while Kenny G plays the sax
 
 Watching Pretty Woman, like we've done in years past
 
 Board games and chaos, politics and feuds
 
 Pictures are taken, but they're missing you
  
 
 Softer on my mind, it doesn't have to be perfect to be right
 
 Afterall we felt a part, we felt a part of it
 
 You were the heart of it, you were the heart of it
  
 
 Softer on my mind, it doesn't have to be perfect to be right
 
 Softer on my mind, breathing in the memories like it's the first time
 
 Afterall we felt a part, we felt a part of it
 
 You were the heart of it, you were the heart of it
  
 
 We felt a part, we felt a part of it
 
 You were the heart
 
 Your were the heart of it
