• Merry Christmas and Happy New Year
    Celebrate with joy and good cheer
    But don't blame me if I can't comply
    For if I did, it would all be a lie

    Be glad that you're you and not me
    because the holidays only bring pain you see
    My thoughts are of a Christmas past
    And only my heartache seems to last

    My only son that I loved so dear
    That grew into a man, That I saw so clear
    Never did I think that he would leave me
    especially with all the presents neatly under the tree

    I miss his laughter, his giggle, his smiles
    For one of those, I would walk a million miles
    His presence was a wondrous thing
    And his absence has brought this poisonous sting

    My other kids just don't understand
    why I can't seem to make a life plan
    This, I won't get over and that won't change
    I now know love on a different range

    So go, be happy and shout with glee
    But please don't look with disappointment at me
    For my child is in Heaven and I miss him so
    Just be on your merry way, but I can't go 4laugh
