Christmas Bells

Daylight is fading, turn on the lights

I'm drinking daily into the night

The radio's playing that old song by Slade

So I sit here blazing, memories we made

Mhm-mmm

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

Mhm-mhm-mhm-mhm-mhm-mhm-mhm-mhm

Mhm

Everyone's praying this year it's white

Radio's playing the same old tune

Mhm-mhm-mhm-mhm

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

Snow fell down 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 wrapping paper has been torn

Just like my heart when you left home

Mhm-mhm-mhm-mhm

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 here

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 all the years that 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

Yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah

Yeah, yeah

Oh, yeah
