Letra de la canción *

This day, a year ago, he was rolling in the snow
with a younger brother in his father&#39;s yard.
christmas break - a time for touching home
the heart of all he&#39;d known, and leaving was so hard -
three thousand miles away, now he&#39;s working christmas day
making double time for &quot;the minding of the store&quot;...
well, he&#39;d always said he&#39;d make it on his own
he&#39;s spending christmas eve alone.
first christmas away from home.
She&#39;s standing by the train station, panhandling for change
four more dollars buys a decent meal and a room.
looks like the sally ann place after all,
in a crowded sleeping hall that echoes like a tomb
but it&#39;s warm and clean and free and there are worse places to be,
and at least it means no beating from her dad
and if she cries because it&#39;s christmas day
she hopes that it won&#39;t
first christmas away from home.
In the apartment stands a tree, and it looks so small and bare
not like it was meant to be
the golden angel on the top, it&#39;s not that same old silver star
you wanted for your own
first christmas away from home.
In the morning, they get prayers, then it&#39;s crafts and tea downstairs
then another meal back in his little room
hoping maybe that &quot;the boys&quot; will think to phone before the day is gone
well, it&#39;s best they do it soon.
when the &quot;old girl&quot; passed away, he fell more apart each day
each had always kept the other pretty well
but the kids all said the nursing home was best
&#39;cause he couldn&#39;t live
first christmas away from home.
In the common room they&#39;ve got the biggest tree
and it&#39;s huge and cold and lifeless,
not like it ought to be
and the lit-up flashing santa claus on top
it&#39;s not that same old silver star you once made for your own
first christmas away from home.
