Christmas is here once again
Brings memories of the past
The times we were together
I am alone again alas
Dusting down the Christmas cards
Placing them for all to see
The house is now empty
Since you were taken away from me
I miss the way you smiled
I miss you being there
I miss the warmth of your embrace
As I talk to an empty chair
Christmas can be a lonely time
When a loved one passes on
The sense of loss is painful
When you realise they have gone
As I read those Christmas cards
I thank God for all the years
That we both shared together
Through happiness and tears
I am going to enjoy Christmas
And toast our life with Champaign
Because I know one day
We shall meet in heaven again
