HARD CANCER CHRISTMAS
Brenn HillDefenders Recording Company (BMI)


Verse 1
I still dream I'm asleep on the cold hospital floor
Listenin' to infusion pumps and my baby boy snore
And I'm somewhere between a dream and nightmare in my sleep
Or prayin' through the night to God his sweet soul to keep

It's 2009 and it's winter outside
And the charge nurse says that you can't hang those lights up here inside
So I dress up like Santa Claus to pass the time away
Then hold his hand when it gets hard and all that I can say

Chorus
Is we'll be fine and dandy Lord it's a hard cancer Christmas
If we live through tomorrow we might get home for Christmas Eve

Verse 2
Now its ten years down the road and his life has been spared
He's growin' up and learnin' fast and he even has some hair
But I still wake up with my heart poundin in my chest
Thinkin' we're still in the fight and wishin' I could rest
But we'll be

Repeat Chorus

Verse 3
I'd give every Christmastime that I will ever get
Every one that I have had and all I ain't had yet
If every cancer kid could make it home by Christmas Eve
And if all of their parents could just finally get some sleep

Final Chorus
But they'll be find and dandy Lord it's a hard Caner Christmas
Lord get them through December and get them home by Christmas Eve
Lord please get them through December and get em home for Christmas Eve
