| Snow falling down children all around
|
| And I’ll be their Santa Claus clown
|
| It’s a time for girls and boys
|
| Just look at me, happy as can be
|
| Taking pleasure just to see them…
|
| Playing with their toys
|
| I haven’t heard a word from you
|
| And wondering what your doin'
|
| Wish that you could see them too
|
| And be here by my side
|
| And almost every day one of them will say
|
| Why’d he ever have to go away
|
| And the tears are so hard to hide
|
| It’s such a lonely time of year
|
| Holidays and birthdays
|
| And summer days and winter days
|
| And any day when your not here
|
| Now Johnny’s getting big and Mary’s like a twig
|
| And little Joe’s so grown up…
|
| He helped mama trim the tree
|
| And looking at him now it’s funny but somehow
|
| I get the strangest feeling
|
| Your standing right here by me
|
| Now he’s so much like a man
|
| Reaching for my hand
|
| And trying so hard to understand
|
| Why my mood is changed
|
| I got to turn my face away
|
| I don’t know what to say
|
| Try to get myself together
|
| And keep from calling out your name
|
| It’s such a lonely time of year
|
| Holidays and birthdays
|
| And summer days and winter days
|
| And any day when your not here
|
| Yes, It’s such a lonely time of year
|
| Holidays and birthdays
|
| And summer days and winter days
|
| And rainy days and sunny days
|
| Any day when your not here |
