lyrics

Now it’s that time of year
When I wish that you were here
'Cause the snow starts falling
And you’re not calling me

So what am I supposed to do this Christmas?
My friends have gone away this Christmas
And all I wanted was for you stay

Now it’s that time of year
When I miss you most, my dear
'Cause the bells start ringing
But I'm still feeling blue

So what am I supposed to do this Christmas?
My friends have gone away this Christmas
And all I wanted was for you to stay

I'll spend this year alone
And I guess that that's okay
But this season’s not the same
Without you here

So what am I supposed to do this Christmas?
My friends have gone away this Christmas
And all I wanted was for you to stay
