I've been doing fine without you, really
But there were Christmases when I didn't
Wonder how you are tonight
Were your cousins late again?
'Cause there were Christmases when you were mine
But for me it's just a lonely time
But there were Christmases when you were mine
Did you notice one less pair of hands?
I'm doing alright if you were wondering
In a snow covered little town
Seasons greetings hope you're well
Up until the nights got cold
Merry Christmas everybody
That'll have to be something I just say this year
I know there shouldn't be a lonely time
'Cause there were Christmases when you were mine
Lately I can never tell
Bet you got your mom another sweater
Mama's in the kitchen worrying about me
Seems like everyone's got someone to hold
When you were putting up the lights this year
'Cause everything I want is miles away
I know there shouldn't be a lonely time
And everybody's here except you, baby
