Christmas Without You

Every flight is grounded from New York to LA
«Snow is blowing, no one’s going nowhere,» so they say
Babies crying, Momma’s trying hard to get them home
This is Christmas, baby, when you’re gone
Cookies in the oven are blackened underneath
And what’s even more, a nail in the door where no one’s hung a wreath
Sleigh bells on the radio have static on the sound
This is Christmas without you around
No time like the present for a present from the tree
I don’t want one, it ain’t no fun without you here with me
And I’m not feeling warmer from the fireplace DVD
Burning flames and reindeer games keep playing on TV
Snow is staying, news is saying folks should just stay home
This is Christmas, without you, alone
No time like the present for a present from the tree
I don’t want one, it ain’t no fun without you here with me
Standing under mistletoe with no one else around
Throwing snowballs without snowfall, nothing on the ground
Now it’s evening, the tree is leaning, it’s tumbling to the floor
Even though you’re kind of Jewish and our love is kind of new-ish
This Christmas isn’t Christmas anymore
