DThis day a year ago he was Arolling in the snow With a Bmyounger Abrother Gin his father's Dyard AChristmas break a time for touching Bmhome The heart of all he'd Emknown and leavAing was so hard Three Dthousand miles away now he's Aworking Christmas Day Making Bmdouble Atime for the Gminding of the Dstore Well he'd Aalways said he'd make it on his Bmown He's spending Christmas Eve aEmlone First GChristmas aAway from Dhome
DShe's standing by the train station, Apanhandling for change Four more Bmdollars Abuys a Gdecent meal and a Droom ALooks like the Sally Ann place after Bmall In a crowded sleeping Emhall that echAoes like a tomb But it's Dwarm and clean and free and there are Aworse places to be And at Bmleast it Ameans no Gbeating from her DDad AAnd if she cries because it's Christmas BmDay She hopes that it won't Emshow First GChristmas aAway from Dhome
AIn the apartment stands a tree and it looks so small and Dbare Not like Git was meant to Dbe AThe Golden Angel on the top it's not that same old Bmsilver star You wanted for your Emown First GChristmas aAway from Dhome
DIn the morning they get prayers then it's ACrafts and tea downstairs Then anBmother Ameal back Gin his little Droom Hoping Amaybe that the boys will think to Bmphone before the day is Emgone Well it's Abest they do it soon When the Dold girl passed away he fell more aApart eyery day Each had Bmalways Akept the Gother pretty Dwell But the Akids all said the nursing home was Bmbest Cause he couldn't live aEmlone First GChristmas aAway from Dhome
AIn the Common Room they've got the biggest tree And it's huge and cold and Dlifeless Not like Git ought to Dbe AAnd the lit-up flashing Santa Claus on top It's not that same old Bmsilver star you once made for your Emown First GChristmas aAway from Dhome First CGhristmas awAay from hDome
