She was wearing red lipstick,
To match her pretty dress,
December twenty-fourth,
At a quarter to eleven's
When I finally got the courage,
To ask her to dance...
Ten years later,
As he took his last breath,
It was a cold Christmas morning,
In a hospital bed,
The children were grown,
He had nobody left,
But the little old nurse,
Who was holding his hand,
'Ma'am could ya spread,
A little holiday cheer?',
A simple Christmas story's,
All he wanted to hear,
But his eyes filled with tears,
At the words she spoke,
Because his favorite,
Christmas story was the one that she told.
She said:
I met him up in Delaware,
In nineteen-thirty-seven,
But I never caught his name,
He was a traveling man,
December twenty fourth,
At a quarter to eleven,
I'm so glad he got the courage,
To ask me to dance.
This Christmas song is so awesome, I have been waiting for Air 1 to play it all season and finally they are! Today my dad's friend came to visit us. His name is Max and he's worked in both California and Alaska with my dad, they get along really well. So he's still here just hanging out. Blah! I have to go! Never enough time! Well I got the main point across right?? LOL
