This Christmas (I'll settle for your angel)

It's snowing outside
Folks are bundled up tight
Hear the sleigh bells ring while the children sing "Silent Night"
Smell the chestnuts roast
Drink an eggnog toast
Two merry families mingling
It tingles me inside

But those couples aglow by the mistletoe
Remind me that I'm all alone

This Christmas Day won't be the same
Heaven took you away from me
I know I'm being selfish, but I can't help it
All I want is you
I guess I'll settle for your angel

All those holiday lights
How they twinkle so bright
I found a Christmas tree you'd like
I decorated it last night
And even though you are gone
I try to carry on traditions that we made together
When you said we'd be forever

But those couples aglow by the mistletoe
Remind me that I'm all alone

This Christmas Day won't be the same
Heaven took you away from me
I know I'm being selfish, but I can't help it
All I want is you
I guess I'll settle for your angel

Recipes we made I'm bakin'
Wish that you were here, I'm waitin'
Can't you see my heart is breakin'
Guess I'm gonna have to fake it

This Christmas Day won't be the same
Heaven took you away from me
I know I'm being selfish, but I can't help it
All I want is you
I guess I'll settle for your angel

This Christmas Day won't be the same
Heaven took you away from me
I know I'm being selfish, but I can't help it
All I want is you
I guess I'll settle for your angel

I'm sorry about your mom. I guess that's what everyone is saying in the comments so I think that's who your missing. I know life won't be the same but she's in the best place imaginable. She's watchiong over you. And someday, when you've grwn old and hjave granchildren all grown up, One day, you'll pass on peacefully and be with her. And watch over your grandchildren.
