“It Doesn’t Feel Like Christmas Without You”
LYRICS:
Joyful feeling in the air. Christmas carols in the square
Busy shoppers rushing ‘round everywhere.
People pass me and they say, have a Happy Holiday.
I smile and wave just to get through.
But, it doesn’t feel like Christmas without you.
No, it doesn’t feel like Christmas without you.

I see the gifts under the tree and think of all you gave to me.
You’d stay up late wrapping everything.
The Stocking that you made for me, hangin’ up on the chimney.
A part of you in everything I see.
But, it doesn’t feel like Christmas with-o-o-out you.
No, it doesn’t feel like Christmas with-o-o-out you.

I took the stockings down today, your picture in the Santa frame.
Tissue wrapped and packed away to keep it safe.
I just can’t hold back the tears. Will it get better by next year?
You’d want me to stop feelin’ blue
But, it doesn’t feel like Christmas with-o-o-out you.
No, it doesn’t feel like Christmas with-o-o-out you.

Days getting short, Nights even colder 
Another year down, another year older
Now Santa Claus that has captured your kids
Brace yourself for the media blitz

Merry Christmas,  happy new year,  happy hannuka too
Be you Christian, agnostic, muslim or jew
I want to say, Happy holiday

Can’t go to the mall, I’m afraid of stampedes
Besides I know,  the best gifts are free
working hard to please the names on my list
But my stocks took a plunge so this song is your gift

Merry Christmas, happy new year, happy kwanzaa too
Be you Mormon, Australian, or a Hindu
I want to say, Happy Holiday

Bridge:  Bill O’Reilly is going bezerk, 
about the war on Christmas by the liberal jerks
Taking Christ out of our Christmas beliefs
But would Jesus go shopping in an SUV?

Maybe they’re right, let’s get back to the roots
Before Santa Claus and Macy’s got in cahoots
Christmas traditions were started by pagans
Long before its exploitation

Merry Christmas, happy solstice, saturnalia too
Be you druid, pantheist, or something new 
Is want to say, happy holiday?
Is it safe to say, happy holiday?

V1
We used to talk the hands off a clock
Up all night just laughin’ together
Clear morning skies
And your sleepy eyes
I thought we could see forever

PreChorus	
Now the only thing we talk about 
is the one thing we can’t change
STOP

Chorus	
Oooh the weather (more the same)
Always the weather (more the same)
Looks like the weather
Forecast is calling for rain



V2
When I talk, do you hear?
My words disappear
Feels like we’re lost in a fog
I listen for you, what can I do?
You won’t tell me 
What’s gone wrong
PreChorus  
STOP 
Chorus

Bridge
I’m afraid to hear 
the words from you
There’s no going back 
once you tell the truth
Tell the truth!
HARD BREAK
