[ Originally by Charles Brown ]
Bells will be ringin' the glad, glad news
Oh, what a Christmas to have the blues
My baby's gone, I have no friends
To wish me greetings once again
Choirs will be singin' "Silent Night"
Oh, Christmas carols by candlelight
Please come home for Christmas, please come home for Christmas
If not for Christmas, by New Year's night
Friends and relations send salutations
Sure as the stars shine above
But this is Christmas, yes, Christmas, my dear
The time of year to be with the one you love
So won't you tell me you'll never more roam?
Christmas and New Year's will find you home
There'll be no more sorrow, no grief and no pain
And I'll be happy, happy once again
So won't you tell me you'll never more roam?
Oh, Christmas and New Year's will find you home
There'll be no more sorrow, no grief and no pain
And I'll be happy at Christmas once again
