The family car, we barely fit Christmas time had come again Bundled up to fight the freeze Picking out the family tree
We'd decorate with clumsy hands In hope that Santa comes again And in the morning, wake to see Gifts beneath the family tree
And I don't know where I'm going But I do know who I'll be These memories and names like leaves all hang on us The family tree
We're older now, we all have changed But we all laugh at the same old things We'll spend the night with memories Gathered 'round the family tree
And I don't know where I'm going But I do know who I'll be These memories and names like leaves all hang on us
We're so much more than blood, we're more than names We're bound by bonds that only God sustains But this time of year we all gather here And I always know I'm home
There are voices now where silence was The subtle signs of growing up Where one is born, another leaves Branches on the family tree
