Christmas Without You

The lights are blinking merrily The tinsel’s on the tree It sits there in the window For all the world to see. The house is filled with holly And pinecone scents the air The Christmas cards keep coming Each one is hung with care. The gifts are tied with ribbons red And topped with pretty bows I’m done with all the details As far as Christmas goes. The fire is softly glowing I think about your touch But Christmas isn’t Christmas I miss you oh, so much. If I could have just anything My Christmas wish would be To wake up in the morning And find you here with me. Staring at your picture I long to be set free Tonight the tears are streaming As I hold it next to me. Flakes of snow swirl through the air I’m braced for stormy weather I wait for brighter days ahead When we can be together. So hold a place in heaven Someday when life is through I’ll be with our Christmas angel And share the day with you.
