Lyrics of Hard Times - John Legend

All the trees alight, all the holly streaming
The town has come to life, waiting for Christmas
I still feel low, searching for some meaning
Until you come home, I'm waiting for Christmas with you

Christmas without you, a long, dark shade of blue
I feel like I've been waiting here forever
All the gifts arrive, all the children singing
Gathered 'round the fire, waiting for Christmas
I could sing along, but I can't find the meaning
The melody feels wrong, I'm waiting for Christmas with you

Oh, when I see your face on this Christmas day
I'll know the light of love brought us together
But until that hour, my eyes will be wide open
I'm like a little child, waiting for Christmas
When that morning comes, we can count our blessings
It was worth it all along, waiting for Christmas with you
