It’s the news that no one hopes for

Every parent’s greatest fear

Finding out the child you love so much

Might not make it through the year

Now the thought of spending Christmas

Without him just feels wrong

They’ve been praying for a miracle

Now they’re praying he can just hold on

For one last Christmas, one last time

One last season when all the world is right

One more telling of the story

One more verse of silent night

They’d give anything so he could have

One last Christmas

Middle of September

Still seventy degrees

Daddy climbs up in the attic

Brings down candles

Hangs the lights on all the trees

Then the neighbors started asking

And pretty soon word got around

First it was the neighborhood

Before too long they lit up that whole town

For one last Christmas, one last time

One last season when all the world is right

One more telling of the story

One more verse of silent night

They’d give anything so he could have

One last Christmas

Twenty-seventh of October

His time was wearing thin

Friends and family, even strangers

That they didn’t even know

Brought presents in

He was weak but he was smiling

Like there was nothing even wrong

They said he wouldn’t make it

Looks like he got to see it after all

One last Christmas, one last time

One last season when all the world is right

One more telling of the story

One more verse of silent night

They gave everything so he could have

One last Christmas

One last Christmas
