There's a picture of you that i took next to last year's tree You're hanging up tinsel and turning your face to smile at me I know just where it's kept, tucked inside of a book I know where to find it but I can't stand to look At the photo i took of you standing next to last year's tree We kept it through new year's, and then for 3 weeks more til all of the needles were brown and shedding all over the floor when I'm cleaning the carpet I still find a few They remind me of Christmas and last year and you Like the photo i took of you standing next to last year's tree It's the biggest that we've ever gotten by far We said as we tied it to the roof of the car Merry christmas to you, wherever you are Put the lights on the tree, hang the sweet decorations around your home Hug the people you love, we never know what tomorrow holds Just like last year's tree, Christmas joy just can't last And memories fade, nearly almost as fast as the photo i took of you standing next to last year's tree

Santa Suit 03:06
She was just 17 you know what i mean it was just a temporary gig for me at the local department store for 4 weeks and nothing more but it all changed when she sat upon my knee She didn't fit the typical mold She seemed a bit too old But I asked her what she wanted under her tree Things got a little weird When she tugged on my fake beard And said all she wanted for Christmas was me She came back to my place But a shadow crossed her face When I changed from my costume and gave her quite a start I poured some eggnog and proposed a toast But she looked at my civilian clothes and said "I miss the jolly old man that stole my heart" Now I'm putting on the Santa suit I'm putting on the Santa suit I'm putting on the Santa suit again (Red suit white beard belt that's big and black Red hat black boots carrying a sack) Every time I swear I'm through But then she bats those baby blues And I know I'm putting on the Santa suit again Now it's 20 years down the road Our kids are both so old They don't believe in Santa Claus at all But when they've gone off to their beds The same idea pops into our heads And we heed the Christmas clarion call Now I'm putting on the Santa suit I'm putting on the Santa suit I'm putting on the Santa suit again (Red suit white beard belt that's big and black Red hat black boots carrying a sack) Every night the whole year through We do the jolly thing we do And I know I'm putting on the Santa suit again
