Two lovers walking hand in hand,
enjoying their special time together.
I just can't help but think of us,
cuddling close in frosty weather.

Their laughter made me remember,
the time when you taught me to skate.
I'd fall, then we'd both laugh,
we stayed that evening rather late.

Back inside by the fireplace,
it's crackling took me away.
As I reached for the heavy blanket,
I knew I needed your memory to stay.

I covered my feet and held your photo,
your smile just melted my heart.
Still I can hear your loving whispers,
before you would depart.

Two years ago on Christmas Eve,
our happiness would suddenly end.
Holiday cheer steering the oncoming car,
swept our lives away on the wind.

This ring I wear was on the seat,
with a card addressed to me.
I offer this ring with all my love,
my wife I would like you to be.

The sound of ice tickling the window,
made me wonder if you now weep.
If those were frozen tears from Heaven,
and our love you still keep.

Ember lights from the fireplace glowed,
as the night became peacefully still.
A choir of Angels broke the silence,
spreading joy and good will.

Don't make this somebody's next year's
Christmas thoughts.

DON'T DRINK AND DRIVE!
