hardest time of the year Lyrics

I remember christmas time

I remember the light

The crackle of the fireplace

The smile on your face

I remember when we didn't have to say goodbye

Now you're gone, but not from my heart

Still I can't even hold you

And though you're gone, and it really hurts

At least I got to know you

It's the hardest time of the year

If my heart could just disappear

Oh, it's hard this time but I fear

It's only getting harder and harder every year

All of these festivities are not festive alone

(Not festive alone)

And maybe I just can't believe you're never coming home

(Never coming home)

The holidays, they always hurt

The memories, they always burn

(Always burn)

At least I've got my family and friends to keep me going

(And now)

Now you're gone, but not from my heart

(Still I)

Still I can't even hold you

(And though)

And though you're gone, and it really hurts

(At least)

At least I got to know you

It's the hardest time of the year

If my heart could just disappear

Oh, it's hard this time but I fear

It's only getting harder and harder every year

You know it's real when it hurts

Hurts you're really gone

Looking down from above

The pain I feel, the water works

And everything feels wrong

When it hurts this much, you know it's really love

It's the hardest time of the year

If my heart could just disappear

Oh, it's hard this time but I fear

It's only getting harder and harder every year

(Harder every year)

Harder every year
