Just Before Christmas
Every year
When the world is full of cheer
There's a blossoming of flowers
By the roadside
At a time of year
Those flowers shouldn't blossom
Around here
They are on a lamp post
They are a toast
From a mother
Or a brother
Or maybe a lover
To a never forgotten ghost
I drive past in my car
With no knowledge of who they are
The flowers just appear
At Christmastime
A time of year
When the world is full of cheer
There was once a football scarf
And a teddy bear
They have long gone
But the flowers are always there
At Christmastime
Placed at that shrine with care
I don't know who you are
And probably never will
You place them and are gone
But you have a heavy heart
And I always spare a thought
For you and your lost beloved one
At Christmastime
