This will Be the first Christmas
Without you by my side
This will be the first time
That I'll not feel like celebrating
The first time in a while
That I will again: cry my tears
Thinking about all those days gone by
All those other Christmas times
Our children will be without you
Our precious grandchildren too
Time marches on regardless
Time does not ever stand still
So though you won't be with us
I know we'll all be thinking of you
When we dragged you along
Or was it you dragging us?
To see all the Christmas lights
To see the wonder all around
As lights sparkled: people smiled
Children laughed as we carried them
Making it as magical a time
As we possibly could for all our lives!
