Every year when Christmas arrives
I cry because you're not here
I want you to come home to me
I pray this every year
I remember the last Christmas
I spent with you that year
We had so much fun and food
And you were so very near
But now you've gone somewhere
And you haven't yet come back
It'll be Christmas again soon
Please come and find me, Dad
I often look out the window
Wondering where you are
Picturing you in front of me
Remembering every scratch and scar
So please make me a promise
And don't break it or I'll be sad
Please promise me just one thing
That you'll come home for Christmas, Dad
