Another day
Every year we go through the motions,
Festivities celebrations and retail promotions,
Without much thought we spend so much money,
Shop after shop not much time we must hurry,
Get into debt with payday loans and our savings,
The gifts that we buy make up for all the years failings,
Now money is tight I'm a single man trying,
Can't afford much and I watch what I'm buying,
My son understands the amount he will get,
He's old enough now that he won't get upset,
Christmas with Cheryl was magic and fun,
A real special moment spent with my loved one,
Now the morning of Christmas has not got that thrill,
We had each year prior ,
what's gone we can't fill.
