Christmas at a Distance

We can't have the family round this Christmas
But Mom hasn't complained 'bout a thing
She's singing carols in the kitchen
And there'll be leftover turkey 'til spring

Grandma can't work the computer
But we talked for two hours on the phone
Dad said with glee, there'll be more booze for me
And your uncle is glad to stay home

Christmas at a distance
But we're still decorating the room
The children were worried that Santa might not come
But he's magic so he is immune

We still took our walk after dinner
Dad stopped to get some more beer
Ran into the neighbors we've not seen since April
And wished them a better new year

Christmas at a distance
But we're still decorating the room
The children were worried that Santa might not show
But he's magic so he is immune

Raise a glass to those that have left us
Raise a glass to those far away
Raise a glass to the doctors and nurses
Taking care of us every day

Christmas at a distance
But we still decorated the room
Christmas at a distance
We'll all be together soon

Christmas at a distance
The bells still ring out and chime
If we're careful this season
It's for a good reason
We can all be together next time
