Christmas future is far away

Christmas past is past

Christmas present is here today

Bringing joy that may last

Have yourself a merry little Christmas

May your heart be light

In a year our troubles will be out of sight

From now on

Have yourself a merry little Christmas

Make the yuletide gay

In a year our troubles will be miles away

Here we are as in olden days

Happy golden days of yore

Precious friends who are dear to us

Gather near to us once more

I know that

In a year we all will be together

If the Fates allow

Until then

We'll just have to muddle through somehow

Have ourselves a merry little Christmas now
