Christmas Candle

Christmas Candle


This Year at Christmas Time
I Think What I Shall Do
Is Light a Christmas Candle
And this I'll Do for You

You've Been Gone a Long Time
And I Still Miss You So
I See Your Star in Heaven
And Oh, How it Does Glow

I Know We'll Meet Again
But It's Been Hard For Me
Especially Through The Family Times
I'd Just as Soon Not See

So This Year at Christmas
To Feel Closer to You
As We Set Down to Dinner
A Candle Will See Me Through

So Until We Meet Again
When Things Are Hard For Me
I'll Light My Christmas Candle
And Sit by the Christmas Tree
