One last christmas · letra

It’s the news that no one hopes for Every parent’s greatest fear Finding out the child you love so much Might not make it through the year
Now the thought of spending Christmas Without him just feels wrong They’ve been praying for a miracle Now they’re praying he can just hold on
For one last Christmas, one last time One last season when all the world is right One more telling of the story One more verse of silent night They’d give anything so he could have One last Christmas
Middle of September Still seventy degrees Daddy climbs up in the attic Brings down candles Hangs the lights on all the trees
Then the neighbors started asking And pretty soon word got around First it was the neighborhood Before too long they lit up that whole town
For one last Christmas, one last time One last season when all the world is right One more telling of the story One more verse of silent night They’d give anything so he could have One last Christmas
Twenty-seventh of October His time was wearing thin Friends and family, even strangers That they didn’t even know Brought presents in He was weak but he was smiling Like there was nothing even wrong They said he wouldn’t make it Looks like he got to see it after all
One last Christmas, one last time One last season when all the world is right One more telling of the story One more verse of silent night They gave everything so he could have One last Christmas One last Christmas
