December Prayer Lyrics

I can remember when

I was much younger

I held those moments

In awe and in wonder

Remember in summer

We'd swim in the river

We'd laugh in the sunshine

Our bodies would shiver

What did I tell you

What did you tell me

Say after me

Say you remember

We had our own dreams

We made our own light

Say after me

Say you remember

I still remember

I still remember

The month of December

We all celebrated

Those memories faded

Remember in winter

We froze all our fingers

Ice rings still form on

The memory that lingers

What did I tell you

What did you tell me

Say after me

Say you remember

We had our own dreams

We made our own light

Say after me

Say you remember

Now it has come

Many years have passed by

Now we both live

Alone

How many times

Have I counted the ways

Were the memories

So wrong

Time after time

I've tried to find my way home

But the road was

So long

Day after day

I've counted the ways

How our love

Went

So wrong

The voice of the singer

Like rings on your finger

So soft and low now

The memories linger

No one is waiting

No one is watching

There's no one to tell you

What you have forgotten

What did I tell you

What did you tell me

Say after me

Say you remember

We had our own dreams

We made our own light

Say after me

Say you remember

Now it has come

Many years have passed by

Now we both live

Alone

How many times

Have I counted the ways

Were the memories

So wrong

Time after time

I've tried to find my way home

But the road was

So long

Day after day

I've counted the ways

How our love

Weny

So wrong

Now that I'm older

The world's gotten colder

I remember the way

Your hair fell on your shoulders

I don't remember

May or September

I've never forgotten

The month of December

I lit the candles

I put the lights on

I never thought

That you'd be gone

I heard the bells ring

Snow I remember

I've never forgotten

The month of December

Now it has come

Many years have passed by

Now we both live

Alone

How many times

Have I counted the ways

Were the memories

So wrong

Time after time

I've tried to find my way home

But the road was

So long

Day after day

I've counted the ways

How our love

Went

So wrong
