"Coming Off The Snow (The Miracle Of Christmas)" lyrics

They're slugging out at the station
Laden with last minute bling
The poor get ignored and the stores are at war
And the registers guiltily ring
And a memory again takes hold of me
As I run for the overnight train
Gotta go
Gotta see my people again

Is your heart coming home this Christmas
Will we meet by the steps of old St. Joe's
Where your heart was so bright
In the darkness of that night
That it warmed us both against the cold
In the dark of that night
With your heart so aglow
I swear I saw it coming off the snow
Coming off the snow

Well, I've been around the world to forget you
Too young to settle down
Had many a drunken Christmas Eve in every kind of town
But I can't deny the miracle that night I kissed you dear
Just tell me that you're coming back this year

Is your heart coming home this Christmas
Will you meet by the steps of old St. Joe's
Where the bells softly chimed as your lips found mine
In a kiss so bold it cut right through the cold
With your eyes so alive and your heart so aglow
I swear I saw it coming off the snow
I swear I saw it coming off the snow
I swear I saw it coming off the snow
