It started this time last year, at Christmastime:
I became yours, I thought you became mine.
I never knew I would feel like this,
So sad and so lonely, at Christmas.
Listening to the Christmas songs I used to think dreary,
They remind me of you when I miss you most dearly.
It'll be Lonely This Christmas, without you to hold
I thought snow was bad, but my tears run so cold.
I've planned a trip to London to see fire in the sky
But it won't replace the fire that burns in your eyes.
My make-up will run, my heart, it will bleed,
You won't ask for my number this New Year's Eve.
I won't see you again, so I'll tell you here:
Merry Christmas Jack, have a Happy New Year.
