作词 : Amato, Friedman, Rich, Rimes The lights around the Christmas tree don't burn as bright And all around the world it isn't a silent night Outside I hear the voices sing The sweetest sounds of caroling But somehow there's a sadness in the song In our hearts we know that something's wrong It's a different kind of Christmas In a different kind of world Even though it looks the same Everything has changed It's a different kind of Christmas Children opening gifts with wonder and surprise I wish that I could still see through such innocent eyes I used to feel so safe inside I had a place to run and hide In my daddy's arms I felt secure No one can protect us anymore It's a different kind of Christmas In a different kind of world Even though it looks the same Everything has changed It's a different kind of Christmas Sending cards that talk of peace and love and cheer Oh, that's what we need if we'd only believe It would be A different kind of Christmas In a different kind of world Even though it looks the same Everything has changed It's a different kind of Christmas Oh, oh Different kind of Christmas
