Yesterday
Holidays haven't been the same since momma passed away.
The joy and love our family had was stolen all away.
Her favorite time was Christmas time, It always seemed to me.
She loved to wrap the presents and decorate the tree.
My daddy went to be with her just the other day.
They will spend Christmas together this year, At least that's what I pray.
It's never gonna be the way it used to be.
We won't have momma's cooking, And I can't decorate a tree.
They at least won't have any pain this year and there won't be any sorrow.
All that was yesterday and we are praying for tomorrow.
