That Christmas Day-Gino Cruz/Jep Go

He was too young to fall apart It was too soon to meet a broken heart Left all alone and so afraid If you looked back, for him, you might have stayed He had no clue why you had gone He waited up for far too long He didn’t know if he had faults There were no words and no adults He was left alone to ask Could you not have chosen Christmas Day As a time to turn and walk away? Did you know your damage brought a life to no tomorrows sought No happy holidays just painful trips back to that place Could you not not have chosen Christmas Day? Could you simply not have turned away? You could have tried much harder and maybe just forgiven her You could have been a father to him that Christmas Day So all his years of life went on Though he had friends, he still felt all alone Living out days afraid and lost He tried his best with smiles he would exhaust He stopped to care why you had gone It carried on for far too long All that he did, to you, were faults To harsh the words, still no adults Still left all alone to ask Could you not have chosen Christmas Day As a time to turn and walk away? Did you know your damage brought a life to no tomorrows sought No happy holidays just painful trips back to that place Could you not not have chosen Christmas Day? Could you simply not have turned away? You could have tried much harder and maybe just forgiven her You could have been a father to him that Christmas Day
