Bells will be ringing this sad, sad news
Oh what a Christmas
To have the blues
My baby's gone
I have no friends
To 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
The time of year to be with the one you love

So won't you tell me
You'll never more roam
Christmas and New Years
Will find you home
There'll be no more sorrow
No grief, no pain
And I'll be happy, happy once again

Oh, there'll be no more sorrow
No grief and pain
And I'll be happy (happy)
Happy, happy (happy) for Christmas
Happy (happy) for Christmas once again
