I'll have a blue Christmas without you
I'll be so blue thinking about you
Decorations of red on a green Christmas tree
Won't be the same dear, if you're not here with me
And when those blue snowflakes start falling
That's when those blue, blue memories, they start a-calling
You'll be doin' all right, with your Christmas of white
But I'll, I'll have a blue, blue blue Christmas
Blue, blue Christmas without you
Blue, blue
Blue, blue
Blue, blue
You'll be doin' all right, with your Christmas of white
But I'll have a blue, blue Christmas
. . .

Sleigh bells ring
Are you listening?
In the lane, snow is glistening
A beautiful sight
We're happy tonight
Walking in a winter wonderland
Gone away is the bluebird
Here to stay is a new bird
He sings a love song
As we go along
Walking in a winter wonderland
In the meadow, we can build a snowman
Then pretend that he is Parson Brown
He'll say, "Are you married?"
We'll say, "No, man
But you can do the job
When you're in town."
Later on, we'll conspire
As we dream by the fire
To face unafraid
The plans that we've made
Walking in a winter wonderland
In the meadow, we can build a snowman
And pretend that he's a circus clown
We'll have lots of fun with Mr. Snowman
Until the all the kids knock him down
When it snows, ain't it thrilling?
Though your nose gets a chilling
We'll frolic and play the Eskimo way
Walking in a winter wonderland
. . .

There's snow on your collar, boy
There's snow on the bench
There's snow on the sleeping grave
And the crooked fence
And if you've been crying
With my hand on my chest
I swear I'll never tell
The town is aglow with lights
The carolers sing
You sister won't sleep tonight
For the morning brings
That old happy Christmas
You came here to find it
I did as well
For joy doesn't come in boxes
Nor peace in a heavy watch
Those red ribbon foxes are not so easy caught
But the search it never stops
The son of a holy man
You dream of the saints
So thin with your poet hands
And your eyes of flame
And I'd like to kiss you
Full on the mouth
I don't care if you tell
For love doesn't come in boxes
Nor truth in a crowded shop
Those red ribbon foxes are not so easy caught
But the search it never stops
For faith doesn't come in boxes
Nor God in your silver cross
Those red ribbon foxes are not so easy caught
But the search goes on and on
The search it never stops
. . .

The smoke of memories in my eyes
The room is sleeting kind
It comes in winter white
In holiday disguise
To sabotage my mind
Dismiss the urge to reminisce
To miss your stupid kiss
The shot at happiness
It never did exist
And I don't care if it did
'Cause I won't cry
There's no turning back
Merry Christmas
Happy goddamn new year
I see you everywhere
I see you everywhere I breathe
You are the devil king
The hell of my dreams
You're poisoning my sleep
And I won't cry
There's no turning back
But it makes me sad
And this year it's going to be
Just like you never knew me
Peace and quiet
Happy home
How I love to be alone
Merry Christmas
Happy goddamn new year
. . .

You're a million miles away this Christmas
You're a million miles away from home
But if you feel like coming back, coming back, let me know
I haven't heard you call me sister
I haven't heard it said in years
But it's a funny thing now it's the only thing I want to hear
For I don't know you anymore
I said ring-a-ling-a-ling-a-ling
Ring a sleigh bell
Ring a doorbell
I want to wish you well
Our family was never perfect
You did your best to tear it down
Well everybody made mistakes
I wish we could fix'em now
I understand that you are angry
Well, maybe I am angry too
Cause I still love you brother
But I don't know what to make of you
When I don't know you anymore
I said ring-a-ling-a-ling-a-ling
Ring a sleigh bell
Ring a doorbell
I want to wish you well
I said ring-a-ling-a-ling-a-ling
Ring a sleigh bell
Ring a doorbell
I want to wish you well
Now do you sit by your plastic tree
And tell your friends you've no family
It's not over, over, over
It's not over, over, over
I said ring-a-ling-a-ling-a-ling
Ring a sleigh bell
Ring a doorbell
I want to wish you well
I said ring-a-ling-a-ling-a-ling
Ring a sleigh bell
Ring a doorbell
I want to wish you well
I want to wish you well
I want to wish you well
I want to wish you well

Christmas time is here
Happiness and cheer
Fun for all that children call
Their favorite time of the year
Snowflakes in the air
Carols everywhere
Olden times and ancient rhymes
Of love and dreams to share
Sleigh bells in the air
Beauty everywhere
Yuletide by the fireside
And joyful memories there
Christmas time is here
We'll be drawing near
Oh, that we could always see
Such spirit through the year
Oh, that we could always see
Such spirit through the year...
Christmas time is here
Happiness and cheer
Fun for all that children call
. . .
