There's a blanket of snow
Covering up the old road
To the house where I was raised
Through the window I see
The lights on the tree
And a glow from the old fireplace
Though it all looks the same
So much as changed
From the way it used to be
Christmas memories
Of happy years gone by
They come back to me
And keep me warm inside
Still those memories
Make me cry
Now the stockings are filled
The old house is still
And the kids are all dreaming away
There's that old easy chair
Me and daddy sat there
Waiting for Santa's sleigh
Now daddy has gone
But we'll carry on
'Cause the little ones still need
Christmas memories
Of happy years gone by
They come back to me
And keep me warm inside
Still those Christmas memories
Oh, they mean so much to me
Oh, those Christmas memories
Make me cry
