Jon Burrowes - Turn of the Year

8. Turn of the Year
Here comes the turn of the year
Stars like a wheel in the sky
Table with more empty chairs
Crazy old life flying by
So it's just up to us now
Gravy and pudding and spice
Holding our hands all around
Our music, our laughter, our feast
Once more we circle the sun
Hold off the dark and the cold
Here with our favorite ones
Yes, we have gotten this o-old
Here at the bottom of time
Memories bringing back tears
Bring out the candles and wine
Here at the turn of the year
