The ghosts are out tonight

Eyes wide and searching for the light

They’re seen in the pubs and bars

On street corners under stars

My love has been snuffed out

In whiskey and candlelight

Now I’m going back into the past

I’m going back into the past

Cos the love I know was born in a different time

And the sounds I hear play concertos in my mind

And this feeling is still so hard to grasp

Searching for the ghosts of Christmas

Searching for the ghosts of Christmas Past

What’s left to celebrate

What shall I raise a glass to

This world aches like an open wound

That’s ever widening

Where shall I go, now the sell by date has passed

When the mellow glow has gone

How will I keep my love alive

Chorus

And the streetlights flash in my eyes

And the smiles of this city fill me with life

There must be something left to grasp

Searching for the ghosts of Christmas Past
