O Christmas Tree

Oh, Christmas tree

Lying in the street

With your brittle branches

Broken in defeat

Where did all your glitter go?

Oh, Christmas tree

With your angel gone

And these empty arms

One strand of tinsel

Barely hanging on

Someone loved you not so long ago

Oh, Christmas tree

Do you remember when

You were lighting up the room?

Why did it have to end

So soon?

Oh, Christmas tree

You're so much like me

I no longer am

Who I long to be

And I can't let her memory go

Oh, Christmas tree

'Cause I remember when

She was lighting up the room

Why did it have to end

So soon?

Oh, my angel's gone

And these empty arms

Hard to find a reason

Just to carry on

And isn't January cold?

Oh, Christmas tree

Oh, my Christmas tree
