Lyrics:
He didn’t have a beard like Santa
But his cheeks were just as red
He’d light up a pipe and smile and kiss me off to bed
And say no matter what I love you ‘til the day I’m dead
Now it sure don’t feel like Christmas
He’s the one who spiked the eggnog, who cut the tree we chose
He’s the one who tested out the ice, made sure the pond all froze
And pulled us from that snowy ditch on Quarry Chapel Road
With his tractor just in time for Christmas
There's a place set at the table
For the one we recall
The one who hung the Christmas star
The one who decked the halls
He showed us how to love and how in giving we receive
I miss him most of all on Christmas Eve
And it still feels wrong
Having Christmas now that grandpa’s gone
He dragged our coasters up the hill, taught me how to build a fire
He always kept me ten feet back from the turkey fryer
He beamed at me from the pews when I sang in Junior choir
I can hear him singing White Christmas
There's a place set at the table, for the one we recall
The one who hung the Christmas star
The one who decked the halls
He showed us how to love and how in giving we receive
I miss him most of all on Christmas Eve
And it still feels wrong
Having Christmas now that grandpa’s gone
And he was battle scarred and sometimes he could be
A little more Silent Night than Oh Christmas Tree
And that shrapnel in his leg helped me to see
That some gave more than presents on Epiphany
Now there's a place set at the table
For the one we recall
The one who hung the Christmas star
The one who decked the halls
He showed us how to love and how in giving we receive
Who snuck downstairs at 4 am to fill up our stockings
He cupped the light of Christmas and kindled it for me
I miss him most of all on Christmas Eve
And it still feels wrong
Having Christmas now that grandpa’s gone
