Christmas Past
                         Lyrics for country sound
                                By S. Sauls
                                 (up-beat)

                    There's your name on your stocking
                    There's your face in Santa's frame
                     There's Rudolph and the reindeer
                       Every year it looks the same

                   There's the tin of Christmas cookies
                        Your mom make'em every year
                       But something's truly missing
                        There is no Christmas cheer

                                 [chorus]

                         Christmas present's all around me
                          Christmas past has come to life
                          Christmas doesn't have a future
                               Us together you and I

                            You left me without warning
                              I guess we didn't last
                        Now I'm left all alone to dwell on
                                  Christmas past

                        Tears begin to fill my eyes
                           As it begins to snow
                      Remembering the snowball fight
                           We had two years ago

                        If you would only come back
                           So we could try again
                        And be My Christmas present
                        And start again as friends

                             back to [chorus]

                    Yah, I'm left all alone to dwell on
                              Christmas past

                      (sleigh-bells in the distance)
               "Bet you can't guess what Santa's bringing?!"
                                 Ho Ho Ho

Pretty neat!

 Nail to the mast her holy flag,
Set every threadbare sail-
And give her to the god of storms,
The lightning and the gale!
