Merry christmas everybody!

Yeah merry christmas everybody... big deal!

What's wrong with you jermaine?

Yeah that's no kind of attitude!

This only happens once a year!

Hey fellas, don't bug him!
He and his girl just broke up, so get off his back!
Can't you see there's tears in his eyes!

Yeah he's crying, look he's crying

Don't cry, don't cry, don't cry!

Christmas wont be the same this year
Without her loving arms, holding you so near
Christmas wont be the same this year
Without her loving arms, holdin you so near

I see the lights
But they don't shine for me
I see the presents
Underneath the christmas tree
Our house decorated
My friends are celebrating

Christmas wont be the same this year
Without her loving arms holding you so near
Christmas wont be the same this year
Without her loving arms holding you so near

The neighborhood kids
Are having so much fun
Counting down the days
Till santa claus comes
And I see the mistletoe
Hangin from my door
I wish that I could kiss you agian
Like I did before

Christmas wont be the same this year
Without her loving arms holding you so near

So go on girl
And have your fun
Don't spoil your time
Thinkin about me
This time next year
My darling dear
Hopefully, you'll be having dinner with me

Christmas wont be the same this year
Without her loving arms holding you so near
