Merry Christmas everybody
Yeah, Merry Christmas everybody, big deal
Hey man, what’s wrong with you Jermaine?
Yeah, that’s no kind of attitude
This only happens once a year
Hey, fellas, don’t bug him
He and his girl just broke up, so get off his back
Can’t you see there’s tears in his eyes?
Yeah, he’s cryin', look he’s cryin'
Don’t cry, don’t cry, don’t cry
Christmas won’t be the same this year
Without her loving arms holding you so near
Christmas won’t be the same this year
(No it won’t now darlin', no, no)
Without her loving arms holding you so near
I see the lights
But they don’t shine for me I see the presents
Underneath the Christmas tree
Our house decorated
My friends are celebrating
Christmas won’t be the same this year
(No, no, no)
Without her loving arms holding you so near
(It Won’t be the same this year)
Christmas won’t be the same this year
(The things we used to do my darling)
Without her loving arms holding you so near
(It's all over)
The neighborhood kids
Are having so much fun
Counting off the days
'Til Santa Claus comes
And I see the Mistletoe
Hanging from my door
I wish I could kiss you again
Like I did before
Christmas won’t be the same this year
(No, no)
Without her loving arms holding you so near
(Yeah, Yeah)
So go on girl
And have your fun
Don’t spoil your time
Thinkin about me This time next year
My darling dear
Hopefully
You’ll be having dinner with me Christmas won’t be the same this year
(No, no)
Without her loving arms holding you so near
(No, no, it won’t, it won’t be the same)
Christmas won’t be the same this year
(Without you, darling)
Without her loving arms holding you so near
(No, no, no, no, it won’t, it won’t be the same)
