Lyrics
Verse# 1:
The Christmas this year, won't be the same
There's no presents with your name again
The snow will fall outside, but it can't hide
The pain I feel inside of me
New Years Eve, my heart still grieves
I remember the way you smiled at me
Valentines Day, my heart went away
But in my dream, I think of you, your love was true.
Verse#2
Easter morning comes, I thank God for His Son
Who rose to give me hope today
Children laugh and play, what can I say
I wish one of them belonged to you and me
Fourth of July, as fireworks fly
I remember, the fire in your eyes
Thanksgiving Day, can't believe you went away
But I'm thankful, I had the chance to say...to say, Oh,Lord,
CHORUS:
This year, I live for you, now that you're gone
This year, I live for you, there's nothingelse I can do
Adlib:
This year I'm gonna watch the sun rise, I'm gonna see the ocean
as it sweeps toward the sky
I'm gonna hear the children's laughter, a new born baby's cry
I wish you were here this year
