Bells will be ringing this sad, sad New Year's
Oh, what a Christmas to have the blues
My baby's gone I have no friends
Wish me greetings, once again

Choirs will be singing 'Silent Night'
Christmas carols by candlelight
Please come home for Christmas
Please come home for Christmas
If not for Christmas by New Year's night

Friends and relations send salutations
Sure as the stars shine above
But this is Christmas, yes, Christmas my dear
Time of year to be with the ones that you love

So won't you tell me, you'll never more roam
Christmas and New Year's will find my baby home
There'll be no more sorrow, no grief and pain
And I'll be happy, happy once again

There'll be no more sorrow, no grief and pain
And I'll be happy, Christmas once again
