Lyrics
<lyrics> You told me you would be here by my side Warming my heart on this cold winter's night Here I sit waiting beside the tree all by myself (by myself)
You told me you would move heaven and earth Cheering my spirits with laughter and mirth Here I sit waiting beside the tree all by myself (by myself)
Oh, could you ever know how much I care? (how much I care) Could you ever know that out somewhere There's a boy who really hurts? (really hurts)
Since I found you I found a girl I found a thorn I found a queen Now I am warm
Oh, could you ever know how much I care? (how much I care) Could you ever know that out somewhere There's a boy who really hurts? (really hurts)
Since I found you I found a girl I found a thorn I found a queen Now I am warm
You told me you would bring presents and treats Cheering my spirits with homemade sweet meats Here I sit waiting beside the tree all by myself (by myself)
Here I sit waiting beside the tree all by myself</lyrics>
