Joe Diffie This Time Last Year lyrics

This time last year was a record cold December
We were in that freezing rain seemed like forever
Just to find that perfect tree
You had a way of making that chill disappear
This time last year I was shopping for a ring
Wedding plans for the Spring
Our friends called us the perfect team
Found that little house on Oakwood Avenue
You said that kitchen was made just for you
How I wish you were still here
Like this time last year
This time last year if I'd have known you were leaving
I would have held you just a little longer
Kissed you with so much more meaning
You had a way of makin' me believe in forever

This time last year you thought I hung the moon
I was so in love with you
I can still see us painting our bedroom
"Gone With The Wind" was your favorite movie
Sometimes we'd stay up and watch it 'til three
How I wish you were still here
Like this time last year
This time last year we found that little house
on Oakwood Avenue
You said that kitchen was just made for you
How I wish you were still here
Like this time last year...........
