Song for Beryl Lyrics

The years have taken hold,
A young girl now so old,
She tells me she'll be fine,
Alone at Christmas time.
She has a little tree,
With lights for company,
And when I go she'll be,
Alone at Christmas time.
Although the years they tried to break you,
You just kept holding on,
How can one so fragile be so strong?

I'm glad I knew you then,
And you called me your friend,
I'll raise a glass of wine,
In memory...
