Christmas Memories

Pine boughs are laying cross the mantle

Fir tree is standing in the hall

Ornaments are hung

Carols have been sung

Outside the snow begins to fall

I’m churnin up my Christmas memories

Stirrin the embers as I grieve

My harmony is missing your melody

I’m yearnin for you this Christmas Eve

Under the tree are Christmas presents

Pretty paper and ribbons all around

But on this silent night

Something just ain’t right

Outside the snow’s still comin down

I’m sitting in your favorite rocker

Emmylou is on the stereo

I put that record on

Just like you would’ve done

Moonlight is shining on the snow
