Story of a teenage Christmas...
Middle Of The Night
Christmas Eve

Well it’s early Christmas morn
Children playing so not to sleep
I feel so very torn
I know that I shall weep

I sit up on the bed
Watching the kids in the floor
Thinking of all that was said
Many Christmases before

Our family of five
Gather around the tree
We were feeling all alive
Until he decided to leave me

Now he has our little boys
I have our little girl
A part they open up their toys
Now living in a different world

After the first day of the year
Our daughter will be with you
The boys will come back here
Just another holiday that we’ve made through
