[Verse 1]
I had a dream last night
I think I fell in love
Kiss in the dark and the light
Until our lips were numb

And since I saw your face
You won't keep us apart
So I etched your name
In print upon my heart
My heart

[Chorus]
It was Christmas Eve
I found my soul purpose
Peace on earth in three words
The road is so long

[Verse 2]
There's a traffic jam
On the radio
The Salvation Army band
Shelter from the snow

The season of good cheer
Pictures old and new
Collected through the years
That I've spent with you
With you
[Chorus]
It was Christmas Eve
I found my soul purpose
Peace on earth in three words
The road is so long

[Bridge]
The year is done
We're falling, falling
I'm coming home
When we were young
From my tears you saved me

[Chorus]
It was Christmas Eve
I found my soul purpose
Peace on earth in three words
The road is so long
