Here (For Christmas) letra

Every year round this time I start to think about you
We're really gonna have another Christmas Eve without you
I can't believe it's been so long
Every day finds a way to make me think about you
Like today when we were picking out the tree without you
I can't believe it's been so long

Oh, we miss you like hell
All the stories that you'd tell
'Bout the boat that you built
But never got to sail
I don't know whether I should
Cry or I should smile through my tears
But if you were here, we would

Sail that boat into the red horizon
Those years lost, I'd tell you all about 'em
Gone don't always mean that you disappeared
'Cause inside all of us you're still here

Another year has passed and now it's time for buying presents
I even got you one, forgetting you're not gonna get it
I can't believe it's been so long
This time around we'll try to smile 'cause we're sick of tears
Most days are easy now but it gets hard this time of year
I can't believe you're really gone

Oh, we miss you like hell
All the stories that you'd tell
'Bout the boat that you built
But never got to sail
I don't know whether I should
Cry or I should smile through my tears
But if you were here, we would

Sail that boat into the red horizon
Those years lost, I'd tell you all about 'em
Gone don't always mean that you disappeared
'Cause inside all of us you're still

Wild and free, I've got so many memories
Soon time too will take all of them from me
Gone don't always mean that you disappeared
'Cause inside all of us you're still here

When it's dark and it's cold
Everyone is coming home
I just wish you could know this
When we're missing you the most
I don't know whether I should
Cry or I should smile through my tears
But if you were here, we would

Sail that boat into the red horizon
Those years lost, I'd tell you all about 'em
Gone don't always mean that you disappeared
'Cause inside all of us you're still

Wild and free, I've got so many memories
Soon time too will take all of them from me
Gone don't always mean that you disappeared
'Cause inside all of us you're still here
