Luyện nghe bài hát The Same Christmas Cake

Christmas makes me realize how greatly things do
Friends lose touch, people age, and family moves
But it is what had stayed the same that gives me the most
For I've had the Christmas cake for almost thirty years
Granny made it in sixty-eight and gave it to my mom
Who gave it to her uncle who it to her son
Who gave it to me and that is where it stuck
For I was only three months old and clearly out of
Each Christmas of my childhood that fruit-brick return
My mom would place it on a plate and me I must learn
That it is to get a gift and not put it to use
And every year I'd take a bite and another tooth
After fifteen years of I'd had all I could take
That I went camping and dropped it in the lake
I thought that I was rid of it, but on eve
There it was "from Claus" under the Christmas tree
Each year I'd try to lose it but it would just
So I cried out "oh why have I given such a burden?"
A replied, "it's not a curse, but the greatest gift"
"For all else abandons you, you will still have it."
For all of man's creations waste away
Relationships do crumble and do decay
The pyramids and stonehenge slowly
But if they were made of Christmas cake last a million years
