Lyrics:

Thinking of you in December 
As music and lights fill the room
Laughing and sharing our stories 
Some things they ended too soon

Paper hats, food and the music
The same songs we play every year
The children may not remember
But I know you'll always be near

Every Christmas, you give me something that 
Money can't buy, I don't need to wait for a 
Man in the sky on a magic sleigh ride
To make all of my dreams come true

Each year we follow the rituals,  
Unwrapping the gifts by the tree
The paper is scattered around us,
But it’s not how it used to be

You’d read out names on the labels
And hand out the gifts one by one
It felt like it took us forever
But I miss it now that it’s gone

Every Christmas, you give me something that 
Money can't buy, I don't need to wait for a 
Man in the sky on a magic sleigh ride
To make all of my dreams come true

We celebrate at the end of the year
We're Raising a glass to the ones who aren't here
For today, they don't seem so far away 

Time to look forward to who we can be
And knowing that you will be standing with me 
Always

Every Christmas, you give me something that 
Money can't buy, I don't need to wait for a 
Man in the sky on a magic sleigh ride
To make all of my dreams come true

Every Christmas, you're right beside me at
Christmas, you always come through
And you know that someday I'll be up there to say
Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas to you

Every Christmas

Our Christmas tune for 2025 is a reflective one but also a hopeful one. And I hope you enjoy it!
