Got a
card in the mail today
From some friends that moved
away some time ago
Merry Christmas,
Happy Holidays,
Hope this finds you both okay,
Love, John and Joan
Thy children laughing in the snow,
Lovers holding mistletoe
to steal a kiss
There's decorations on the street,
strangers smiling when they meet,
it's Christmas every
where but here.
Christmas without Mary
won't be merry this year.
All those silver bells and
Christmas carols
Won't be bringing you tight cheer
I'll just go through the motions
But in my heart it won't feel right
Cause Christmas without Mary
Will just be another si
lent night
There's a present over there
A gown I thought she'd love to wear
Just for me I'd have loved
to seen her face
When she saw that silken lace
On Christmas Eve
Wish I hadn't even bought a tree
It's just there reminding me
That I'm alone
The colored lights of red and green
are the bluest that I've ever seen
since my Mary's gone.
Christmas without Mary
won't be merry this year.
All those silver bells an
d Christmas carols
Won't be bringing you tight cheer
I'll just go through the motions
But in my heart it won't feel right
Cause Christmas without Mary
Will just be another silent night
