Holiday Song

The holidays come, you find yourself alone again
It's such a striking reminder
And Valentine's come with no return address
You can't find her

It seems like April Fool's
But the punchline never comes
You tell yourself, "Just give it time, summer's comin' and you'll be fine"
But the sun beats down and all I'm doing is thinking about you, about you

Every day is a day without you
Love is gone and I can't sleep
One day I'll be looking back
Until then this is yours to keep

"Give thanks it could be worse"
At least that's what you tell yourself
And it's almost convincing
November comes on cold, I swear that you don't know what you're missing

Christmas time again, the loneliest of all
The fear of how to make it to New Year's
Raise your glass and toast to the one you miss the most
And promise that you won't be doing this again in twelve month's time

Every day is a day without you
Love is gone and I can't sleep
One day I'll be looking back
Until then this is yours to keep
