Every year around this time I start to think about you We're really gonna have another Christmas Eve without you I can't believe it's been so long Every day finds a way to make me think about you Like today when we were picking out the tree without you I can't believe it's been so long Oh, we miss you like hell, all the stories that you'd tell About the boat that you built but never got to sail I don't know whether I should cry or I should smile through my tears But if you were here We would sail that boat into the red horizon Those years lost I'd tell you all about 'em Gone don't always mean that you disappear 'Cause inside all of us you're still here Another year has passed and now it's time for buying presents I even got you one forgetting you're not gonna get it I can't believe it's been so long This time around we'll try to smile 'cause we're sick of tears Most days are easy now but it gets hard this time of year I can't believe you're really gone Oh, we miss you like hell, all the stories that you'd tell About the boat that you built but never got to sail I don't know whether I should cry or I should smile through my tears But if you were here We would sail that boat into the red horizon Those years lost I'd tell you all about 'em Gone don't always mean that you disappear 'Cause inside all of us you're still Wild and free, I've got so many memories Soon time too will take all of them from me Gone don't always mean that you disappear 'Cause inside all of us you're still here When it's dark and it's cold, everyone is comin' home I just wish you could know that's when we're missing you the most I don't know whether I should cry or I should smile through my tears But if you were here We would sail that boat into the red horizon Those years lost I'd tell you all about 'em Gone don't always mean that you disappear 'Cause inside all of us you're still Wild and free, I've got so many memories Soon time too will take all of them from me Gone don't always mean that you disappear 'Cause inside all of us you're still here
