Christmas Makes Me Cry

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

Another 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 having fun

I wonder if I'm the only one

Who's broken heart still has broken parts just wrapped in pretty paper

And it's always sad seeing mom and dad getting a little grayer

And they always say: Have a Happy Holiday

And every year, I sincerely try

Oh, but Christmas, it always makes me cry
