Lyrics
Mama
You can still set out the plates
Even though father's gone or he's getting home late
I know it's tough for this season to bring much joy
But the feeling is still felt strong with family bond
And I love you
I love you
And he loves you too
We can dance to Elvis Presley on the one, two, two
This is Christmas
Even though it won't be the same
We should remember all the joy that we felt yesterday
Yeah
'Tis the season to be jolly
You can go, you can go without me
I've been stopped in my tracks by your memory
Only hard times know
We don't make hard times like she used to make 'em, used to make 'em
What are hard times?
They're like rock cakes
Scones with drive-thru, big in wartime
Don't know what her secret was but all these
Years past my cousin Sky asks for the recipe
My sister Kyra says, Yeah, but no- It
Doesn't taste the same no matter what
It doesn't taste like the memory as it fades, it glows
And Kel made bubbles for Darcy so she stays close
Remembering that last Christmas when I did know
Our hard times are different but the great-grandkids won't know
'Tis the season to be jolly
You can go, you can go without me
I've been stopped in my tracks by your memory
Only hard times know
'Tis the season to be jolly
You can go, you can go without me
I've been stopped in my tracks by your memory
Only hard times know
