Merry, merry Christmas All the lights, red and green, On the street, start to glow Those old Christmas song melodies, Blow slowly in the snow Days gone by I didn't see, Alone under a Christmas tree So far away this Christmas Friends of mine, one by one They're leaving headed home The ones I love, long to see, Wait for me, overseas A year gone by I didn't see, How I wish you were here with me I'm so far away from home Everyone back home they say The snow is falling down Places that I long for, Memories together I'm so far from home It's a lonesome Christmas It's a lonesome Christmas It's a lonesome Christmas I'm so far away, And I don't wanna be alone tonight Everyone back home they say The trees are covered in white Faces that I long for, So loving and so tender But I'm so far from home It's a lonesome Christmas It's a lonesome Christmas It's a lonesome Christmas I'm so far away, And I don't wanna be alone tonight Lonesome Christmas Lonesome It's a lonesome Christmas It's a lonesome Christmas So far away So far away That it's sad to say Merry, merry Christmas
