Mike Hubbard - Christmas Past Lyrics

She always had the softest Christmas sweaters
Don't know what made them better than the rest
A warm kiss on my cold cheeks made them redder
It wasn't Christmas Eve without her head on my chest
How does all this time slip by so fast
Now she's just a ghost of Christmas past

She always snuck away with me at parties
To pet the dogs and hardly talk at all
We'd wear matching Santa hats on Christmas morning
Still hear her voice singing carols down the hall
How does all this time slip by so fast
Now she's just a ghost of Christmas past

Snow on her eyelashes
Blue eyes and red hair
It's all still there, but fading to less
So hey, merry Christmas, I guess

I always thought that I'd propose on Christmas
This year my list was shorter than before
A simple strand of string slipped 'round her finger
But this year she got my something pricey at the store
A broken heart and nothing more
How does all this time slip by so fast
Now she's just a ghost of Christmas past
