Story behind the song
No story really. It's just about being nostalgic during the holidays.
Since I first posted this on 12/19/2015, I added a third verse that makes it not so somber.
Lyrics
verse:
The north wind is blowing
Soon it will be snowing.
It's Christmas time again.
I think of Christmas past,
Only memories last.
It's Christmas time again.
chorus:
It's the season of reflection,
A time for introspection.
It's Christmas time again.
verse:
I'm sending cards and letters
Saying "hope next year is better
And hope to see you then."
Each year the list's completed.
Few are added, more deleted
Among relatives and friends.
chorus
verse:
Everything's alright.
The angel's are in flight
And there go the wise men.
We celebrate the birth
And pray for peace on Earth.
It's Christmas time again.
