My First Christmas Without You
A snowy blanket lies on the ground
as I visit your grave on Christmas Day,
it’s my very first Christmas without you
cancer cruelly snatched your life away
We had so little precious time together,
as you lay dying you made me your wife;
when we whispered our vows we were crying
I promised to love you for the rest of your life
This year there won’t be any presents
I’ve not bothered with a Christmas tree,
I’m struggling to cope with depression
my life’s so unbearable now it’s just me
