"Christmas Mourning" lyrics

Christmas used to mean
Bright red and forest green
Fresh apple pie to eat and hands to hold
But this year's not the same
Without you in the frame
These winter holidays are extra cold

And carols that I loved
Are sounding minor now because
You're not right here to sing along
And this year, that's all I want

I used to love this season
But now I'm only freezing
Cause without you, it's always storming
Though I don't feel like smiling
Just know that I'm still trying
To make it through this Christmas mourning

This Christmas mourning

I'll hold your flannel tight
Bake cookies that you liked
And wish with all my might to go right back
To winter in the Poconos
All bundled in our coats
Standing barefoot in the snow until we cracked

Now the movies that'd we'd see
Aren't funny like they used be
Cause you're not here to laugh along
And this year that's all I want

I used to love this season
But now I'm only freezing
Cause without you, it's always storming
Though I don't feel like smiling
Just know that I'm still trying
To make it through this Christmas mourning

This Christmas mourning

I'll learn to love this season
For now I'll keep on grieving
What can ya do if it's still storming
I'll look back and remember
Our favorite times together
To make it through this Christmas mourning
