The fire is burning, the rooms all aglow
Outside the December wind blows
Away in the distance the carollers sing in the snow
Everybody's laughing, the world is celebrating and everyone's so happy
Except for me tonight
Because I miss you most at Christmas time
And I can't get you, get you off my mind
Every other season comes along and I'm alright
But then I miss you most at Christmas time
I gaze out the window, this cold winter's night
At all of the twinkling lights
Alone in the darkness remembering when you were mine
Everybody's smiling,
The whole world is rejoicing and everyone's embracing
Except for you and I
Baby I miss you most at Christmas time
And I can't get you, get you off my mind
Every other season comes along and I'm alright
But then I miss you most at Christmas time
In the springtime,
Those memories start to fade with the April rain, yeah
Through the summer days till autumn's leaves are gone
I get by without you when the snow begins to fall
And then I miss you most at Christmas time
And I can't get you, get you off my mind
Every other season comes along and I'm alright
But then I miss you most at Christmas time
