Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Ah
[Verse 2]
Bells will be ringin' the glad, glad news
Oh, what a Christmas to have the blues
My baby's gone, I have no friends
To wish me greetings once again
[Verse 3]
Choirs will be singin' Silent night
Oh, Christmas carols by candlelight
Please come home for Christmas
Please come home for Christmas
If not for Christmas, by New Year's Night
[Verse 4]
Friends and relations send salutations
Sure as the stars shine above
Oh, this is Christmas, yes, Christmas, my dear
The time of year to be with the ones you love
[Verse 5]
Then won't you tell me you'll never more roam?
Christmas and New Year's will find you home
There'll be no more sorrow, no grief, no pain
Because I'll be happy, happy, once again
[Verse 6]
No more sorrow, no grief, no pain
Because it's Christmas, Christmas, once again
[Verse 7]
Oh, friends and relations send salutations
Sure as the stars shine above
Oh, this is Christmas, yeah, Christmas, my dear
The time of year to be with the one you love
[Verse 8]
Then won't you tell me, you'll never more roam
Christmas and New Year's will find you home
There'll be no more sorrow, no grief, no pain
Because it's Christmas, Christmas, once again
