There's something about John Denver
He's getting me through December
It's a Rocky Mountain Christmas here
Your favorite songs are in my ears
A calendar for counting
Cinnamon and icing
Coat the door with green and red
Out on the street we're fitting in
It's Christmas Eve and I'm on my knees
I wanna hug my mama
The time of year that cripples me
And I wish I was stronger
Thought it would get easier
I'm older now and it still hurts
Another invitation
Cards with all their faces
Shopping for the perfect gifts
Hold the door and welcome friends
It's Christmas Eve and I'm on my knees
I wanna hug my mama
The time of year that cripples me
Oh and I wish I was stronger
Thought it would get easier
I'm older now and it still hurts
You left behind what I hope to go on
And show my daughter
Endless love and a whole lot of patience
Will make her stronger
I don't want to waste a bit
I want her to remember it
