Lyrics

I Think I'll Buy a Christmas Tree

I think I'll buy a Christmas tree
And bring it home for decorating
I love the smell of evergreen
It fills a room like you fill me

I'll hang a wreath out on the door
And string up lights of blue and gold
I'll taste a flake of falling snow
And wish that you were here
I'll remember how you looked
Beside a fire of apple wood
We were bundled safe and warm
But that was long ago

I'll take the box down from the hall
With the tinsel and the Christmas balls
You took your favourites when you left
So I guess the rest are mine
One by one I'll find a branch
With all my strength I'll reattach
My hope that all the hurt has past
And I'm doing fine
