A few lines from "Missing You At Christmastime":

"We're missing you at Christmastime

When the world is filled with cheer

As families gather to celebrate

And hold their loved ones, dear

We face each day with a sadness

A deep heaviness of heart

Made worse by all the cheeriness

In which the world is taking part

When nightfall comes and lights aglow

In sparkling, colored array

And shoppers scurry with packages

Meant for loved ones on Christmas Day

Our hearts feel aching loneliness

That this year you won't be near

And we find ourselves returning to Christmases past

When this emptiness wasn't here

When you were alive and well with us..."
