Merry Christmas!

Christmas Years Ago!

I can hear what you don’t say
I know we’ve so far to go
We are stuck here in this crossroads
This year will be like none before

When,
I think of all the years gone by
I dream of long ago
When Perry Como sang White Christmas
And Rudolf really had a bright red nose
I wish I could give you something different
I wish that I could give you more
I wish that on this Christmas
It would be as Years ago.

This time it’s not so simple
Life’s seasons have changed us so.
I wish that things were different
Christmas was simpler years ago

When,
I think of all the years gone by
I dream of long ago
Yuletide carolers they sang of Christmas
And Santa road razors down hills of snow
I wish I could give you something different
I wish that I could give you more
I wish that on this Christmas
It would be as Years ago.

The times that are between us
Can’t change how I love you so
Somehow we’ll make this Christmas
As special as the ones before

When,
I think of you this Christmas
And how I Love you so
I pray God will bridge the seasons
So Christmas feels like years ago.
