People laughing full of Christmas cheer
Some people haunted by this time of year
The past hurts us more than we’ll ever know
Memories return we just can’t let them go
Family and friends who have sadly passed on
The feelinngs of love, they’re never gone
Wanting to hold them with a loving embrace
Oh to have that chance to stand face to face
People who are lonely fighting back the tears
Drowning their sorry thoughts in spirits and beers
That’s not the answer, the escape is short lived
They don’t want sympathy, just the time you can give
Children watching their friends with the best toys
Desperately searching inside for their broken joys
Parents over spending forcing themselves in debt
Not realising the bank will never forget
Our hearts go out to the Christmas advert on tv
Plucking at our heart strings hoping that we’d all agree
This year a penguin and a football match in no man’s land
The power of advertisements, the power of the brand
Christmas day, a full table with an empty chair
A place set to show how much we always care
A time for reflection, love and peace
A time for all the fighting finally to cease
