A railway station 

On a long forgotten line 

No destination 

But it always leaves on time 



He buys his ticket 

As the train prepares to leave 

Don't want to miss it 

On this night Christmas Eve 



He stared into the night no expectations 

He watched the world go by without a sound 

He saw the city lights arrive and fade away 

While all that night 

All that night 

The snow came down 



No conversation 

As the snow fell from the sky 

His consolation 

That the world is well disguised 



He stared into the night no expectations 

He watched the world go by without a sound 

He saw the city lights arrive and fade away 

While all that night 

All that night 

The snow came down 



He stared into the night, no expectations 

But in his heart he wanted to believe 

That somehow someone would be waiting there 

Upon this Christmas Eve 



And when his train it pulled into that station 

He saw there was a single pair of tracks 

Within the snow and leading to that 

Station door 

And he followed those steps back 



And on this night of our salvation 

Where dreams that have been lost 

Can there be found 

They walked away together 

On that Christmas Eve 

While all that night 

All that night 

The snow came down 



IN THIS LAST SEASON OF THE YEAR 

THIS SEASON THAT WE TRUST 

IT'S NOT ONLY IMPORTANT TO KNOW FOR WHOM WE WAIT 

BUT TO KNOW WHO WAITS FOR US 



AND AS THEY WALKED HOME TOGETHER 

TO THE LIGHT OF CHRISTMAS TREES 

THEY COULD NOT HELP BUT WONDER 

ABOUT HOW THIS NIGHT CAME TO BE 



WHILE BACK INSIDE THE ATTIC 

THE GIRL SAW THEM WALKING THROUGH THE SNOW 

AND SHE SMILED WITH A CHILD'S DELIGHT 

THINKING HOW THEY WOULD NEVER KNOW 



AND SUDDENLY SHE REALIZED 

BENEATH THIS NIGHT OF STARS 

SOMETIMES CHRISTMAS USES ITS OWN HANDS 

AND SOMETIMES IT USES OURS
