Daylight is fadin', turn on the lights I'm drinkin' daily into the night The radio's playin' that old song by Slade So I sit here blazin', memories we made When the Christmas bells ring out, they don't sound Like they did every year you were here When the mistletoe comes 'round, we don't kiss Like we did all the years you were here Everyone's prayin' this year it's white The radio's playin' thе same old tune When thе Christmas bells ring out, they don't sound Like they did every year you were here When the mistletoe comes 'round, we don't kiss Like we did all the years you were here Snow filled globe, all around On the day that you left town Children sing in the streets Songs you used to sing to me Close my eyes until December ends And all of the whiskey has been drank All the wrappin' paper has been torn Just like my heart when you left home When the Christmas bells ring out (the bells ring out), they don't sound Like they did every year you were here When the mistletoe comes 'round (when it comes 'round), we don't kiss Like we did all the years you were here When the Christmas bells ring out (the bells ring out), they don't sound Like they did every year you were there When the mistletoe comes 'round (when it comes 'round), we don't kiss Like we did every year you were here When the Christmas bells ring out (the bells ring out), they don't sound Like they did every year you were here When the mistletoe comes 'round (when it comes 'round), we don't kiss Like we did all the years you were here Oh, oh, oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah Ooh, yeah, yeah, oh, yeah, yeah, yeah
