Greeting cards have all been sent
The Christmas rush is through
But I still have one wish to make
A special one for you
Merry Christmas, darling
We're apart, that's true
But I can dream, and in my dreams
I'm Christmasing with you
Holidays are joyful
There's always something new
But every day's a holiday
When I'm near to you
Oh, the lights on my tree
I wish you could see
I wish it every day
The logs on the fire
Fill me with desire
To see you and to say
That I wish you Merry Christmas
Happy New Year, too
I've just one wish on this Christmas Eve
I wish I were with you
So I wish you Merry Christmas
And happy New Year, too
I've just one wish on this Christmas Eve
I wish I were with you, oh
I wish I were with you
Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas, darling
The Christmas Blues lyrics
By Sammy Cahn and David Holt
The jingle bells are jinglin'
The streets are white with snow
The happy crowds are minglin'
But there's no one that I know
I'm sure that you'll forgive me
If I don't enthuse
I've come down with those Christmas blues
I've done my window shopping
There's not a store that I've missed
But what's the use of stopping
When there's no one on your list
You'll know the way I'm feeling
When you love and you lose
Then you'll have those Christmas blues
When somebody wants you
Somebody needs you
Christmas is a joy of joy
But friends, when you're lonely
You'll find that it's only
A thing for little girls and little boys
May all your days be merry
Your season full of cheer
But until it's January
I'm gonna go on and disappear
Well, Santa may have brought you some stars for your shoes, yeah
But all the big man brought me was the blues
Those brightly packaged, tinsel covered, Christmas blues
