When I was a kid, we'd all celebrate
Christmas at Grandma's house
After she died, and we all grew up
We started to get spread out
My parents and brother, and sisters and cousins
All live in different states
We've all got our kids, our jobs and our lives
And it's harder to relate
I'll call you this Christmas
I'll call you this Christmas
I'll call you this Christmas
I'll think about you too
But it's the best that I can do
When me and my friends, were all in school
Christmas was so much fun
Waiting for Santa, and wishing a Merry Christmas
For everyone
We promised to stay friends forever
That don't always come through
But you've always got a place in my heart
So this is what I can do
I'll call you this Christmas
I'll call you this Christmas
I'll call you this Christmas
I'll think about you too
But it's the best that I can do
Falling in love, it happens to us
Sometimes love burns out
There are some ones, who've broken my heart
I'm better off without
Sometimes you find the ones that you love
Are better off as friends
I'm wishing you love and comfort and joy
But that's all that I can send
I'll call you this Christmas
I'll call you this Christmas
I'll call you this Christmas
I'll think about you too
But it's the best that I can do
