Lyrics
Today I found that card you sent to me
Back in the year of '63
The one that says that I'm your valentine
With hearts of red and a pretty verse
That says, "Sweetheart, I'm glad I'm yours and you are mine"
And I've got that funny mask you wore
On the Halloween of '64
What a funny clown you were in your disguise
You tagged along right with our kids
Got all dressed up the way they did
Everybody on the block laughed till they cried
On the New Year's Eve of '66
We celebrated with a kiss
As "Auld Lang Syne" played through the midnight hour
And on our anniversary
You gave the perfect gift to me
Red roses always were my favorite flower
And I recall one Easter day
And a basket filled with candy eggs
You told the kids the bunny brought for Dad
And that one year, unexpectedly
The party that you gave for me
Was the best birthday I guess I ever had
Holidays, what happy times we had together
Oh, they were such happy holidays
Back then I thought they'd last forever
And I loved all the holidays
Because I spent them all with you
But now I find the holidays
Are so hard to get through
Now our kids are all grown up and gone
You've made a new life of your own
With someone that you love much more than me
And I think of how our lives have changed
How they'll never be the same
The love that we had now seems just like a dream
The holidays hold memories
That we had as a family
And those happy times I never will forget
Last Christmas I spent all alone
Was the saddest day I've ever known
I guess I haven't quite adjusted yet
Holidays, what happy times we had together
Oh, they were such happy holidays
Back then I thought they'd last forever
And I love all those holidays
Because I spent them all with you
But now I find the holidays
Are so hard to get through
Holidays, what happy times we had together
Oh, they were such happy holidays
Back then I thought they'd last forever
And I loved all those holidays
Because I spent them all with you
But now I find the holidays
Are so hard to get through
