Daylight is fadin' turn on the lights

I'm drinkin' daily into the night

The radio's playin' that old song by Slade

So I sit here blazin' memories we made

Mm hmm mm hmm

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

Mm mm hmm mm mm mm hmm mm mm mm mm hmm

Everyone's prayin' this year it's white

The radio's playin' thе same old tune

Mm hmm mm hmm

When thе 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 filled globe 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 wrappin' paper has been torn

Just like my heart when you left home

Mm hmm mm hmm

When the Christmas bells ring out

The bells ring out they don't sound

Like they did every year you were here

Mm hmm mm hmm

When the mistletoe comes 'round

When it comes 'round we don't kiss

Like we did all the years you were here

Mm hmm mm hmm

When the Christmas bells ring out

The bells ring out they don't sound

Like they did every year you were there

Mm hmm mm hmm

When the mistletoe comes 'round

When it comes 'round we don't kiss

Like we did every year you were here

Mm hmm mm hmm

When the Christmas bells ring out

The bells ring out they don't sound

Like they did every year you were here

Mm hmm mm hmm

When the mistletoe comes 'round

When it comes 'round we don't kiss

Like we did all the years you were here

Mm hmm mm hmm

Oh oh oh yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

Ooh yeah yeah oh yeah yeah yeah
