Christmas aint the same without you, Mama
Even though there's presents underneath the tree
Lots of smiling faces everywhere
I'd be smiling too but you're not there
I know christmas should feel warm and light
Colored lights and tinsel make the season bright
The gentle hush of softly falling snow
And my baby's underneath the mistletoe
Ornaments on the christmas tree, they don't mean that much to me
They don't seem to sooth my soul
Spare me the tradition and the drama, just this year
All I want for christmas is to have my mama here
Christmas without you
Everybody's singing christmas songs
But I just couldn't bring myself to sing along
I can smell the cookies pies and cakes
But they just can't compare to the ones my mama used to make
Jingle bells and deck the halls, chaos in the shopping malls
Eggnog with some rum and spice, plastic statues of baby christ
Spare me the tradition and the drama, just this year
All I want for christmas is to have my mama here
Christmas aint the same without you
I just can't stop thinking about the things we'd do
On christmas day
I know you wouldn't want to see me cry
But it's so hard to say goodbye to what we knew
On christmas without you
Then I heard a voice from heaven say
Lift up your face and wipe your tears away
I'm with you now and I will always be
Look inside your heart and you will see
Christmas is the time for living
Give the gifts that you've been given selflessly
And you will see the joy inside you start to grow
Tthe more you let it show, and now you know
At christmas I'm with you
Forever, yes it's true
I'll always be with you
