about

"Christmas Memories Remain" concerns gifts of bygone Christmas days that are kept forever.

lyrics

Green and gold paper lay across the floor
Looking nothing like it did before
Little wide eyes brighter than the tree
While Momma cleans up the pile of debris

My childhood friend came running from next door
To tell me what I had in store
He said your father put something in the back of the car
A brand new black electric guitar

Christmas memories
You know they never leave
Unlike the many presents you have received
Some are broken and thrown away
Maybe pawned and never claimed
But Christmas memories remain

Diamond plated earrings
Really don't mean anything
Neither do wide screens
For the Super Bowl

That material bliss does not last long
After all the gifts are gone
You'll always remember
A good grean bean casserole

Green and gold paper lay across the floor
Looking nothing like it did before
Little wide eyes brighter than the tree
While Momma cleans up the pile of debris

Christmas memories
You know they never leave
Unlike the many presents you have received
Some are broken and thrown away
Maybe pawned and never claimed
But Christmas memories remain
