[C] [D]
[G] [C] [G] I followed footprints in the snow, [D]
never knowing [G] if I was right behind you.
Looking down, no one would know [D]
I wasn't walking [G] hand in hand [D] beside [G] you.
For your footprints [C] lead the way [D] to a hearth [C] where hearts we [D] made surround [G] you.
You're awash [C] in all its [G] glow, [D]
I'm still [G] standing in the snow.
I stood and watched [C] the lights go [G] out [D]
while the [C] snowflakes settled [D] all around [G] me.
Though it filled [C] my heart with doubt, [D]
couldn't move [C] and this is where [D] you found [G] me.
As our footprints [C] disappear, [D]
snow racing [C] how I [D] came to be [G] here.
I've got nowhere [C] else to go, [D]
now you're standing [F] [Em] in the snow.
[D] Look [G] for [A]
[B] [C] understanding [Em] in the snow, [D] you [G] look [A]
just [C] outstanding [Em] in the snow.

[G] [G] Now it's almost [C] Christmas Eve, [D] I'm surrounded [C] with the sound of laughter.
[G] To give is better than [C] to deceive, [D] for I received [C] a happy [D] ever after.
[G] You might have left [C] me in the cold, [D] a fitting ending for the fool that I [G] was.
But you'd be cuddled up [C] alone, [G] [D] and I'd still be standing [G]
in the snow.
