Christmas Day is getting closer

But there's sadness mixed with joy

Every day a few more questions

From our little girl and boy

Not alone, but they'll be lonely

For their Daddy won't be here

And just like the air at Christmas

There'll be a chill upon the chill



Christmas without Daddy

Will be such a lonesome day

We'll send a prayer and

All our love to you so far away

Your son just wrote to Santa

Asked him to send you home

Yes Christmas without Daddy

We'll be blue and all alone



(Instrumental Break)



Christmas without Daddy

I don't know what we're gonna do

On the present from your baby

She wrote, "Daddy, I love you"

Your son just wrote to Santa

Asked him to send you home

Yes Christmas without daddy

We'll be blue and all alone
