Every flight is grounded from New York to LA "Snow is blowing, no one's going nowhere," so they say Babies crying, Momma's trying hard to get them home This is Christmas, baby, when you're gone Cookies in the oven are blackened underneath And what's even more, a nail in the door where no one's hung a wreath Sleigh bells on the radio have static on the sound This is Christmas without you around No time like the present for a present from the tree I don't want one, it ain't no fun without you here with me And I'm not feeling warmer from the fireplace DVD Burning flames and reindeer games keep playing on TV Snow is staying, news is saying folks should just stay home This is Christmas, without you, alone No time like the present for a present from the tree I don't want one, it ain't no fun without you here with me Standing under mistletoe with no one else around Throwing snowballs without snowfall, nothing on the ground Now it's evening, the tree is leaning, it's tumbling to the floor Even though you're kind of Jewish and our love is kind of new-ish This Christmas isn't Christmas anymore
