Sometimes we are missing someone we love at Christmas because they can't be with us for whatever reason-death, divorce, separation, military etc. We still have to find the strength to go on because after all it is Christmas!

Story behind the song
This was written a few years back when I was going through this situation myself. It took awhile to get it demoed and finish it up. I also made a moving video slide show with this song honoring our troops on my page.
Lyrics
Christmas Just The Same (c) Colleen Laylon-Frost, BMI, 2008 All Rights Reserved Vocals and Guitar by Nashville's beautiful Heather Cowles-Morris Verse 1 Took down the boxes from the attic wiped a tear from my eye Everything was just the way we packed it last year at Christmas time Climb But this year ain't like the last one no this year we're all alone and... Chorus It won't be the same without you but it's Christmas Just The Same we'll decorate the tree, the kids and me yeah we'll go on like nothings changed Cause it's Christmas Just The Same Verse 2 Mama took us out Christmas shopping tried her best to cheer me up later on we stuffed all our stockings filled yours with all my love Climb Cause this year ain't like the last one no this year, we're all alone and Chorus It won't be the same without you but it's Christmas Just The Same we'll decorate the tree, the kids and me yeah, we'll go on like nothings changed Cause it's Christmas Just The Same Bridge On Christmas Eve, the kids were asleep felt you here with me, placing presents under the tree The way you'd want it to be.... We'll go on you'll see................ and... Revised Chorus It won't be the same without you but it's Christmas Just The Same we'll take down the tree, the kids and me yeah, we'll go on like nothings changed Cause it's Christmas Just The Same TAG Oh it's Christmas Just...The Same..........ooooooooohhhhhhhhhh

Hello Colleen, This is a sad, but beautiful song, enjoyed the listen. I have a similar song called "Christmas Won't Be The Same", Hayley Oliver sang it for me this year. Wishing you and yours a Wonderful Christmas, Kurt
