You might find some crumbs on the table
There's sure to be toys on the floor
There's holes in most of the stockings
And the Christmas wreath fell off the door
The house ain't a picture of beauty
The white glove ain't coming up clean
It's an imperfect holiday season
And that's just the things you can see
There's pain that I wish I could keep from you
There's loneliness, heartache, and sorrow too
You need to know that I'll never leave you
And I'm feeling everything too
Let's string up some popcorn and berries
Bring me the glue gun we'll fix the wise men
Turn on John D and the Muppets
I've got to smile again
We'll clean up the house with the eight track on
Decking the halls to the timeless songs
Far away from the nagging doubt
We'll forget all our worries for now
It's not what I wanted to give you
This heartache unwrapped in your hands
I'd trade it in for a store full of joys
If I could, you understand
We're turning out okay
We'll keep the wolves at bay
The darkness of our former days
Will fade and pass away
We're turning out okay
And we'll always have today
The darkness of our former days
Will fade and pass away
