When I Think of Christmas

There will be presents underneath the tree But none of them will be from you to me I’ll be spending time with friends and family But I’ll still feel so cold and lonely I’ll take my feet for a dance or three I’ll open up my throat and try to sing I’ll wash down ham and goose with punch and bubbly But it won’t quell my melancholy I’ll be in tears for the rest of the year The season won’t be bringing me any cheer I get so sad when I think of Christmas Day Cause I know you’ll stay away On Christmas Eve, I’ll fall asleep and dream Of the greatest gift that there could be But there’s one thing Santa Claus can’t bring That’s you home to me I’ll be in tears for the rest of the year The season won’t be bringing me any cheer I get so sad when I think of Christmas Day Cause I know you’ll stay I know you’ll stay I know you’ll stay away
