Lyrics
Do you still remember our very first December
And the little tree that we brought home?
It's shape was kind of funny, for we hadn't so much money
So we set about the task of making it our own.
I recall just how you arranged each little bough to
Conceal the spots where branches hadn't grown
Then we nestled by the fire stringing popcorn on a wire
And listening to carols on a dusty gramophone
We had no gives that year to place beneath our little tree
We barely found a way to pay the rent.
We'd empty out our pockets just to buy something to eat
But our hearts were full of love, and that was freely spent.
Well this year's tree is glorious, with presents laid before us
What a blessed life that we have sown.
But I get a little teary, just remembering the year we
Brought inside the little tree that made our house a home.
