Christmas Without You

Christmas trees and falling snow
Village lights are all aglow
I see the children dance with joy
But my spirit has fallen coy
Candy canes and Santa Claus
Selflessness without a cause
The smile on my lover's face
But none of it could take your place
(Chorus)
'Cause it's just not Christmas without you
Red and green have faded to a lonely shade of blue
I can't write my Christmas list
'Cause even Santa can't grant my wish
It's just not Christmas without you
There's cookies and candles and caroling
But none of it could mean a thing
Stockings hanging aren't the same
Without the one that has your name
I hear of Christmas miracles
But I'm afraid I won't be fooled
How the hell can I be merry
If I have to bring your gift to a cemetery
(Chorus)
The presents pile up to my waist
But they'll never be enough
Hark the herald angels sing
But I wish they'd all shut up
I want to smile and I want to laugh
But all my efforts just fall flat
All I want this year is to have you back
(Chorus)
