CHRISTMAS WITHOUT YOU
MERRY CHRISTMAS IN HEAVEN
I MISS YOU MORE THIS TIME OF YEAR
I HOPE THAT ALL THE ANGELS
ARE DECORATING WITH CHEER
DO THEY TAKE THE LIGHT THAT SURROUNDS YOU
BRIGHT ENOUGH FOR US DOWN HERE TO SEE
DO THEY USE OUR TEARS AS TINSEL
TO DECORATE THE TREE
ARE THERE PRESENTS FOR YOU ALL TO SHARE
A FIREPLACE TO KEEP YOU WARM
ARE THERE TREATS IN EVERYONES STOCKINGS
THE WAY IT WAS WHEN YOU WERE HERE AT HOME
IT WILL BE VERY LONELY
FOR THIS BRIGHT TIME OF THE YEAR
FOR IT WAS YOUR SWEET FACE BAILEY
THAT GAVE ME ALL MY CHEER
MY PRESENT FOR YOU THIS YEAR
IS ALL THE LOVE I HAVE INSIDE
AND ALTHOUGH I CANNOT SEE YOU
YOU WILL ALWAYS WALK BY MY SIDE
