W is for Wish

W is for Wish -- and this Christmas, the one thing I wish for is Adessa's return.

There is nothing else in this world I want more.  I pray for it every day.  I pray for Adessa every day -- for the Lord to bless her, to protect her, and to bring her back soon.

This song says it all -- I miss Adessa always, but the ache is particularly acute at this time of the year.  And so I dedicate this song to Adessa, looking forward to the day we are reunited when all the heartache of separation can be replaced by overwhelming joy.



gifts are piled beneath the tree
gathered here with family
but there's a space where you should be
I miss you at Christmastime

sounds of laughter fill the air
lights are shining everywhere
but where's the joy when you're not there?
I miss you at Christmastime

and tonight in all my dreams
I will see you, I will see you
and my only Christmas wish
is to hold you in my arms again

friends all ask me how I've been
and I could hide behind a grin
but they can sense the ache within
because I miss you at Christmastime

and tonight in all my dreams
I will see you, I will see you
and my only Christmas wish
is to hold you in my arms again

as I walk these frozen streets
I'm lost inside your memory
the holidays, they are bittersweet
because I miss you at Christmastime
oh, I miss you at Christmastime
