Last Year (feat. Brad Paisley)

I got the boxes down from the attic With the tree up in the room And unwrapped every ornament Covered in pages from last year's Sunday Tribune Just about every one of them Reminds me of you 'Cause knick-knacks and flashbacks And yester-year's news Oh, it's that time again For the memories of loved ones, family, and friends But this Christmas I know won't compare To back when you were here I guess there's always last year You were laughing by the light of the fireplace Every time I close my eyes The best days of my life Those cold winter nights And even though I realize There will never be another December like that But I'm trying to be thankful for what we had Oh, it's that time again For the memories of loved ones, family, and friends But this Christmas I know won't compare To back when you were here I guess there's always last year Found a picture of you in the snow In a bad Christmas sweater Next to letters you wrote Don't you know you're the reason I love this season so? Oh, it's that time again (it's that time again) This Christmas is just not the same without you here I guess there's always last year Guess there's always last year
