about

This song is dedicated to my grandma Jackie, who has been a huge part of my life. The songs is about decorating my Christmas tree and finding an old ornament she gave me. I recall all of her love and life lessons she has taught me. Jackie has advanced dementia and spends most of her time outside, thinking about who knows what. I like to think that somewhere in there are still some memories of all the love she has shown me.

All The Love You've Shown Me
Music and lyrics by Ryan Hicks

The pictures and souvenirs
All hanging on the wall
Reflect a life well-lived
And cared for us all

One Christmas you gave to me
a present long ago
To place upon my tree
now memories start to flow

Chorus
It’s Christmas today
Out the window I see
My Children run and play
With all the love you’ve shown me

You taught me everything
to love and always be kind
time slowly slips away
and moments leave your mind

Here you are today
as your memory slowly fades
Scared and angry to think
life’s moments hide in the shade

Chorus

It’s Christmas today
Out the window I see
My Children run and play
With all the love you’ve shown me

Bridge
I’ve grown up and tried my best
With your heart in mine
to hold tight
And let your light shine

Chorus
It’s Christmas today
Out the window I see
My Children run and play
With all the love you’ve shown me
