[Verse 1: Jonas H. Petersen]
We’ve lost our fathers
We’ve lost our mothers
We didn’t quite think it would be this hard
To endure the christmas time

[Verse 2: Jonas H. Petersen]
We’ve lost our siblings
We’ve lost our children
We didn’t quite think it would be this hard
To endure the christmas time

[Chorus: Jonas H. Petersen]
Who can defeat the time we live in?
Who can defeat the time we die in?
Where shall we go
With all the memories of you
In the christmas time?

[Verse 3: Jonas H. Petersen]
We’ve lost our story
And we’ve lost our glory
We didn’t quite think it would be this hard
To endure the christmas time

[Chorus: Jonas H. Petersen]
Who can defeat the time we live in?
Who can defeat the time we die in?
Where shall we go
With all the memories of you
In the christmas time?

[Verse 4: Jonas H. Petersen]
So we carry our heavy load lights
And hang them on the tree
And we didn’t quite think they could shine so bright
So bright
In this christmas time…
