Christmas On Champs Elysees Monsieur L'Vampyre

........CHRISTMAS ON CHAMPS ELYSEES This night of mass, I still recall the thing we had--dare I suggest, if it was love, how we did fall? For just a while, our lives were blessed ........Now Christmas on Champs Elysees .........is not the same, in any way. The lights reflecting on the Seine have lost a little of their glow I still walk there, but only when there's no one with me I should know; ........and never since have I gone to .........that small cafe, where I met you. 'twould be too much for me to bear I'd have to face reality accepting you would not be there and put to rest your memory ......but now each Christmas I can feel ......the warmth of you, it's almost real. And so this night, so warm and mild I'll not forget the love of you but celebrate the Jesus child the way we used to do. ......and light a Candle Christmas Eve .......though you have died, I still believe. © ron wilson
