I still put up the lights Still bring happy songs But if we're keeping it real I just don't feel like singing alone Still deck the halls Try to spread the cheer But I know in my heart where you are And I can't bring it here You're looking down with your angel wings I'm here just trying my best to carry on your legacy You taught me to dream You're why I believe You were hope You were spirit and joy You were Christmas to me You live the quiet You put the star on the tree And you gave all of your love and time to your family Now it won't be the same And it won't be as bright 'Cause you spent a month of December making sure our season shine And you're looking down with your angel wings And I'm here just trying my best to carry on your legacy You taught me to dream You're why I believe You were hope You were spirit and joy You were Christmas to me You're looking down with your angel wings You taught me to dream You're why I believe You were hope You were spirit and joy You were Christmas to me
