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
They'll be a chill upon the air.

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.

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...
