LYRICS
I love to see
how you decorate the tree
for Christmas every year
it's so pretty
I love the sound
of our family all around
laughing way too much
about nothing
I love the movies
that we have to watch each year
kids waiting up for Santa
spreading all that Christmas cheer
If I close my eyes
I can go right back
to those Texas nights
of singing Johnny Cash
But this years so different
everything keeps changing
and it's taken more than I thought it would from me
So i hold onto the memories
I know truth be told
there's so much beauty that we hold
grateful to have something to be grateful for
Time will probably move
a little faster than we think
before we know it
i'll be standing at your door
If I close my eyes
I can go right back
to those Texas nights
of singing Johnny Cash
But this years so different
everything keeps changing
and it's taken more than I thought it would from me
So i hold on to the memories
If we make it through December
always seems to make you cry
the older I get
the more I'm seeing why
But if we make it through December
everything's gonna be alright
i'll try to be there come the summertime
Everything's gonna be alright
