It's all red and gold and Nat King Cole
And tinsel on the tree
It's all twinkle lights and snowy nights
And kids still believe
And I know that they say, "Have a happy holiday"
And every year I sincerely try
Oh but Christmas, it always makes me cry
It's the ones we miss, no one to kiss
Under the mistletoe
'nother year gone by, just one more that I
I couldn't make it home
And I know that they say, "Have a happy holiday"
And every year I swear I sincerely try
Oh but Christmas, it always makes me cry
Always
Seems like everybody else is happy
I wonder if I'm the only one
Whose broken heart, still has broken parts
Just wrapped in pretty paper
And it's always sad seeing mom and dad
Getting in a little greyer
And they always say, "Have a happy holiday"
And every year I sincerely try
Oh but Christmas, it always makes me cry
