Merry Christmas, my friend

Merry Christmas, my friend
What a year it's been
Ups and downs
And everything in between

And yet here we are
We've made it through
A bit battered and bruised 
But not too askew 

And it's thanks to you 
That I made it this far
For being there for me 
When things went fubar 

So I say... thank you
You're a sparkling gem 
And a true Christmas angel 
Merry Christmas, my friend
