The lights are bright on our Christmas tree,
decorations are draped all around.
When all is quiet in the dark of night
I listen yet don't hear a sound.
My mind can hear the laughter
of Christmas's gone by.
My mind can recall the visions
I barely have to try.
Most memories come unheeded
of Christmas around a tree.
With all my children with me
gathered at my knee.
This Christmas we have a different tree
and are making traditions anew.
With your children gathered at my knee
sharing memories of you.
My heart can feel your laughter
from Christmas's gone by.
My heart can feel your presence
I barely have to try.
The lights are bright on our Christmas tree,
decorations are draped all around.
You are with me in the dark of night
I just listen with my heart and you are found.
