Every year, the same reminders
of the things I've lost
Absent friends and broken pledges
wrapped in freezing frost
Why should I be bright and merry?
Why should I, won't someone tell me?
Tell me, tell me, tell me
Cold bleak winters filled with sorrow
are all I've ever known
Season's greetings you can keep them
Just leave me alone
"Why not join us, toast the season?
"Don't they know I have my reasons?
Tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me
Every year such joy and gladness
Sparkling in their eyes
Treat them tougher, make them suffer
Bring them down to size
All around me, oh so cheery
I'm not happy so why should they be?
Tell me, tell me, tell me
I Love Christmas
I love Christmas,
I love Christmas
It's my favourite time of year.
So enthralling to see the snowflakes falling.
To hear the children calling.
Sweet words of Christmas cheer. It's music to my ear.
See the blazing yule before us

Church bells ringing and people singing
Songs of Christmases gone by
Memories that fill the Christmas sky Love and laughter reminding me forever after
Just why I love Christmas
The Jingle bells are jingling
Festive folks are mingling
Christmas kids are tingling with delight
As they picture Santa and his reindeer candour
On their fabled fantasy of flight
Church bells ringing and people singing
Songs of Christmases gone by Memories that fill the Christmas sky Love and laughter reminding me forever after Just why I love Christmas
