Christmas in Hyattsville ?93
(It?s Not Christmas Without You)
written by David A. Alberding

Ready to board on Christmas Eve night
Got the presents all packed for your red eye flight
Family?s waiting in Atlanta,
I don?t want you to go

But I kiss you deep; I head back home
To the tree, the tinsel, and the being alone
To the angel we made from Aluminum foil and play dough

I didn?t want you go, but how was I to know

That it?s not Christmas without you
All my red and green?s gone blue
And no matter what I do
It?s not Christmas without you

Now Nana and Pop have done their best
It really ?tis the season and aren?t we blessed
So many could come so far so fa la la

But the plastic candles with the bubble up lights
They don't seem to shine this year as bright
As the twinkle in your eyes lit by the stars

To late I realize what I?d give to see those eyes

?Cause It?s not Christmas without you
All my red and green?s gone blue
Man, I did not have a clue
That it?s not Christmas without you

Hey there, Santa, is it too late to change my mind
This year I?m sure of what I want, and no, she won't be hard to find

?Cause It?s not Christmas without you
And all the red and green?s gone blue
Please make my Christmas wish come true
?Cause It?s not Christmas without you
