And the snow fell
On Christmas day
And I never felt so homesick
And I'm three thousand miles away
In America
Oh and it's true
That you don't know
What you've got
Until it's gone
Until it's gone
And the bells rang out in Central Park on Christmas day I
Walked through the snow
With nowhere to go
But it was kind of beautiful even though
I felt so alone
So far from home
Unless you're sure that you don't
Really care for Christmas I'd
Make the best of Christmas time today
And the sign said
No flight today
So I came back from the airport
And you're three thousand miles away
On the telephone
Oh and it's true
That we don't know
What we've got
Until it's gone
Until it's gone
[Repeat chorus]
So unless you're sure that you don't
Really care for Christmas I'd
Make the best of Christmas time today
[Repeat chorus]
The snow fell at Christmas...
The bells rang out, in Central Park, the bells rang out, nowhere to go...
