Blue Lights Just For You

Lyrics:Dennis Martin/2026 (Denny James Martin)

Did you feed the birds today
Christmas is coming soon
The snow is a falling
So soft and heavy now
(And) I’ll be over soon

I found a little tree
One that I’m sure
Was just waiting just for you
Tiny little frosted branches
That seemed to reach out
To grab my hand
While I was just passing through
I’ll bring the tinsel too

We’ll dig those old decorations out
The ones that Daddy always fussed about
And the blue lights
Just for you

Tell me again Mamma
What Christmas was like
When my dreams were so simple like a child
And winter’s magic held its spell
If only for a little while

Isn’t it funny now
How we use to think
All the noise and laughter
Seemed so crazy then

Everyone talking to you all at once
How’ve yah been?
Where yah go’in?
We’ll get together again soon


So many snowflakes have fallen since then
Like the countless stars in the long winter’s night
Never wanting it to end

Seems we live life like whispers now
Keeping memories tucked away somehow
High on the shelves of our hearts
And..Until the magic finds us here again
We’ll bring them down again

Did you feed the birds today
Christmas is coming soon
Well dig those old decorations out
And..the blue lights
Just for you
