It’s Christmas Eve,
And I try not to slip,
On the icy surface
Of the ground which I cannot see
It’s dark and very cold tonight
But nothing can stop me
It’s you I want to see.
I start the ignition,
The heat turns on
I back out of my driveway
Crystal flakes fall
Onto the paved roads
But nothing can stop me
It’s you I long to see.
I’m half way there
And driving slow
The weather has seemed to worsen
My windshield wipers
Are working quickly
But nothing can stop me
It’s you I have to see.
Who could have known?
The black ice was ahead?
It blends in with the road.
Even at the slow speed I went
My car began to spin
Out of control.
Maybe something can stop me
But it’s still you wish to see.
The car stops working
It’s smashed up pretty bad
My head is throbbing
My arms are aching
I feel very cold
Something has stopped me
It’s you I crave see.
I realize almost instantly
I’m lying on the road
Blood has begun to surround me
I understand I’m dying
I breathe one final breath.
Will death stop me?
When it’s you I yearn to see?
I find myself
In fields of gold
The pain has finally ceased
I got before God
But there’s no need to explain
Will God stop me?
It’s you I ask to see.
You stare out into
The snowy night
Waiting for me
I walk in front of you
I hold back so many tears
I finally see you
But you can’t see me.
I tell you I love you,
Even though you can’t hear me
I stay right by your side
I’ll stay there till the day you die
And we’ll be together in eternity.
In the end nothing stopped me
It’s you I’ll always see.
