Christmases When You Were Mine

[Verse 1] Please take down the mistletoe Because I don't want to think about that right now Because everything I want is miles away In a snow covered little town My momma's in the kitchen, worrying about me Season's greetings, hope you are well Well I am doing alright If you were wondering Lately I can never tell [Chorus] I know this should not be a lonely time But there were Christmases when you were mine [Verse 2] I have been doing fine without you, really Up until the nights got cold And everybody's here, except you, baby Seems like everyone's got someone to hold [Chorus] But for me it is just a lonely time Because there were Christmases when you were mine [Verse 3] Merry Christmas everybody That will have to be something I just say this year I will bet you got your mom another sweater And were your cousins late again When you were putting up the lights this year Did you notice one less pair of hands [Chorus] I know this should not be a lonely time But there were Christmases when I did not wonder how you are tonight Because there were Christmases when you were mine [Outro] You were mine
