The Fireplace Glowed

I am lonely as the hills On a cold Christmas eve Can even feel the chills Almost want to leave I remember Christmas as child And how the fireplace glowed Sometimes the weather was mild Then we would wish it had snowed I can still smell the baking My mother used to make Think I will start making What my mother used to bake I start to make some cookies And baking up some pies I was not taught by rookies Can make a good dough rise I start setting up my tree And putting on the lights I really want to see How it will look tonight I will always know Family will be here And I will always show My love is always near To have a happy holiday Keep your family close And always try to find a way To show they are your loves To you all I say Merry Christmas Will you have a very good night Just get into the spirit of Christmas It will be a very good sight
