[Bridge:]
Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Make it a special holiday

[Verse:]
Usually round this time of the year
I used to hug on my lady
Used to hug on my baby
Cuddling women next to the fire place
Watching the snow fall down

(Pre-Chorus 1)
Ever since you ran away
Christmas ain’t been the same without you baby, out you baby
Oh if I had one wish
It would be to never spend a Christmas without you baby, out you baby

(Pre-Chorus 2)
Now here we are in these lonely days
First night without you girl was the coldest day
Ain’t nothing merry bout a Christmas without you baby, out you baby

[Chorus:]
How can I? How can I?
Have a merry little Christmas, Christmas
A merry little Christmas, Christmas
Without you, without you
The holidays ain’t never been the same
Ever since you ran away

Now I can’t have a merry little Christmas
Now…

[Verse:]
I can’t keep telling myself that she’s coming home
No, what’d I do to make you up and leave
When you left and took a part of me

(Pre-Chorus 1)
Ever since you ran away
Christmas ain’t been the same without you baby, out you baby
Oh if I had one wish
It would be to never spend a Christmas without you baby, out you baby

(Pre-Chorus 2)
Now here we are in these lonely days
First night without you girl was the coldest day
Ain’t nothing merry bout a Christmas without you baby, out you baby

[Chorus:]
How can I? How can I?
Have a merry little Christmas, Christmas
A merry little Christmas, Christmas
Without you, without you
The holidays ain’t never been the same
Ever since you ran away

[Bridge:]
Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Make it a special holiday
