►LYRICS - We Don't Need Anything This Year
A winter morn, your hand in mine
The window panes are dressed in white
And the snow is falling on your ears
Darling, we don't need anything this year
I like tinsel on my tree
And you like popcorn, and you like me
We'll weave traditions, and you can hang the star
I'm happy just to be where you are
Here's a Christmas present, here's to Christmas past
And here's to all the first times and the last
Here's to all the joy we have and here's to all the tears
Darling, we don't need anything this year
Mom and dad's on Christmas Eve
And now it's us, hard to believe
I look around at all that we hold dear
Darling, we don't need anything this year
Here's a Christmas present, here's to Christmas past
And here's to all the first times and the last
Here's to all the joy we have and here's to all the tears
Darling, we don't need anything this year
Life is short and sweet, the years keep passing by
Sitting here with you, we've watched them fly
It only takes a blink and then before you know
It's time we learned how to let go
I hung your picture by the tree
Made some popcorn and tried to sing
Sometimes it feels like you're still here
Here's a Christmas present, here's to Christmas past
And here's to all the first times and the last
We'll cherish all the memories and cling to every tear
Darling, we don't need anything this year
Oh, but I'll sure be missing you this year
