The Christmas of 2012 was your last Christmas because you didn/'/t survive.
That was the last Christmas that I was able to spend with you and Dad.
You died nearly three months later because the situation was so bad.

In 2012, you said it might be your last Christmas and sadly, you were right.
You shined like a star but that star faded, a star that shined so bright.
I thought you/'/d see more Christmases but I didn/'/t know what the future had in store.
If I had known that it would be your last Christmas, I would/'/ve appreciated it more.

This will be the fifth Christmas that I/'/ll be spending without you.
You always made Christmas better and that is certainly true.
The Christmas of 2012 was the last Christmas when you were still alive.
Merry Christmas Mom, I still carry you in my heart as Christmas of 2017 arrives.

Six Christmases ago, you were still alive.
The Christmas of 2012 was your last Christmas because you didn/'/t survive.
That was the last Christmas that I was able to spend with you and Dad.
You died nearly three months later because the situation was so bad.

In 2012, you said it might be your last Christmas and sadly, you were right.
You shined like a star but that star faded, a star that shined so bright.
I thought you/'/d see more Christmases but I didn/'/t know what the future had in store.

The Christmas of 2012 was the last Christmas when you were still alive.
Merry Christmas Mom, I still carry you in my heart as Christmas of 2017 arrives.
