The Last Christmas Song (12.24.13)

The tree is empty down below
There's no more wine and no more snow
Soon there'll be no more holiday
Christmas has come and it's going away
This is the last Christmas song
This is the last Christmas song
This is the last Christmas song I will sing to you

The trash cans are full of paper and bows
The stockings are empty, and that's how it goes
Soon there'll be just another day
Christmas has come and it's going away
This is the last Christmas song
This is the last Christmas song
This is the last Christmas song you'll hear from me

Changes come this time of year
The latest thing is almost here
So the last thing you'll want to hear
Is one more song of holiday cheer

They say everything comes to an end
Who can tell if we'll meet again
Soon they'll all be regular days
Christmas is going and it just won't stay
This is the last Christmas song
This is the last Christmas song
This is the last Christmas song

Original notes to myself:
(My first instinct is to repeat this last bit as though it were a record skipping a groove. Then, a noise that sounds like a scratch, and the song resolves to the last chord. Of course, you can always try to find a last line for the song instead.)
