Christmas In The Rain

Hang out the lights and put up the tree
We’ve waited and planned so expectantly
But everyone sometime
Spends Christmas in the rain
You know it’s a season that’s hard for some
The skies may be grey but our hearts are warm
So hold onto each other
This Christmas in the rain
It’s gonna rain my love
But Christmas Day has come
We’re heading home
It’s gonna rain my dear
But I will hold you near
‘Til winter’s gone
Think of the faces you don’t see there
At everyone’s table stand empty chairs
But they’ll live in our memories
Each Christmas in the rain
These are the thoughts that are bittersweet
The young ones that they had no chance to meet
But we sing out their stories
At Christmas in the rain
These are the days of our Christmas cheer
To lay down the burdens we’ve borne all year
As we gather together
This Christmas in the rain
Each day’s a gift that you give in kind
Together the weather we’ll pay no mind
‘Cause everyone sometime
Spends Christmas in the rain
Yes everyone sometime
Spends Christmas in the rain
Yes everyone sometime
Spends Christmas in the rain
