Mary's in a nursing home
She puts her favorite records on
Reminds her of the years long gone
Another Merry Christmas
Billy's home from overseas
The pride of his whole family
Still fights a war that no one sees
Another Merry Christmas
It's happy and sad
The good and the bad
Someone's up, someone's barely hanging on
It's everything all at once
If we're honest enough
Everybody wants to be loved
Every year on Christmas Eve
Jill hangs four stockings
Now just three
Wonders if there'll ever be
Another Merry Christmas
Our painted old nativity
Is fragile like the lives we lead
Silently reminding me
God is with us
Another Merry Christmas
