There's a blanket of snow covering up the old road To the house where I was raised Through the window I see the lights on the tree And a glow from the old fireplace Though it all looks the same So much has changed from the way it used to be Christmas memories of happy years gone by They come back to me Keep me warm inside Still those memories make me cry Now the stockings are filled The old house is still And the kids are all dreaming away There's that old easy chair Me and Daddy sat there Waiting for Santa's sleigh Now Daddy has gone But we'll carry on Cause a little one still needs Christmas memories of happy years gone by They come back to me Keep me warm inside Still those Christmas memories Oh, they mean so much to me Oh, those Christmas memories make me cry *
