Merry Christmas, Lonely New Year Lyrics & Tabs by New York Holiday Singers
Merry Christmas, Lonely New Year
guitar chords lyrics
Woke up to the cold, about a quarter past eight
Set out my breakfast for one
Grabbed my shopping list, bundled up tight
Wrapped in my coat and gloves
Tonight I'll light the tree and set the table for two
Tonight it's Christmas Eve
And it's been twenty-four weeks since I saw you
And I'll be merry on Christmas
But it's a lonely New Year
'Cause we've been living at a distance
But Yuletide brings me cheer
And we'll be merry on Christmas
But have a lonely New Year
Because that's when I will miss this
Here alone without you near
But have a lonely New Year
Because that's when I will miss this
Here alone without you near
Everything is perfect and warm
We'll pop some bubbly and dance
I picked my playlist, I made it months ago
I'm leaving nothing up to happenstance
Tomorrow we can
Go walk through the city, see the tree and lights
But for tonight the glow that's coming from the fireplace
Will show me my favorite sights
And I'll be merry on Christmas
But it's a lonely New Year
'Cause we've been living at a distance
But Yuletide brings me cheer
And we'll be merry on Christmas
But have a lonely New Year
Because that's when I will miss this
Here alone without you near
But when it comes to Christmas
And we're standing at the tree
Celebrating Christmas
There's one more gift to you from me
You'll remember this Christmas
My love, my love, my love, my love,
Because I want to be with you
On New Year's too
And spend my whole life with you
And we'll be merry on Christmas
And it's a happy New Year
We've lived and gone the distance
But now I'm on my knee right here
So, tell me, is this Merry Christmas?
And will we celebrate this year?
Because I never want to miss this
Your smile and happy tears
Wash away all doubts and fears
And, with one word when your throat clears
They'll all be happy New Years,
They'll all be happy New Years.
