Another year is fading
so I think I´ll stop awhile
and think about the ones we´ve lost,
change the tears into a smile.

I´ll remember all the good times
relive the laughter, drink a toast
to friendships I have treasured,
to those who meant the most.

And, as I celebrate this Christmas
with family and with friends
I´ll keep the lost ones in my thoughts,
make sure the memories never end.
