The Last Christmas

Tomorrow is just another word

That I don't use much anymore

I keep looking back at yesterday

To the way it was before

The way things were before you died

When Christmas still had joy

Now Christmas trees and Santa Claus

Are too painful to enjoy

Christmas eve still passes by

The presents, all put away

This night is filled with tearful dreams

And the dread of Christmas day

Our fireplace holds no stockings now

Like it did when we first met

The gift you gave me, under the tree

I just can't open it yet

The thing I miss the most this day

I've missed for quite a while

It's the way your face would wake the sun

With your Christmas morning smile

Another Christmas has come and gone

Without you by my side

And though I cherish the birth of Christ

It's also the day you died
