Don't Wish Me Merry Christmas

Lynn Anderson · The Christmas Album [Sony Special Products] [1994]

(Glenn Sutton)



Children are singing just outside my door

Snowflakes are falling it's Christmas once more

Everyone's happy but I feel so blue

It's just not like Christmas since I don't have you.



So don't wish me merry Christmas this year

For how could that ever be

Tell me how could Christmas be merry and bright

If you're not here with me?



We used to add presents and hang mistletoe

Then sit by the fireside and turn the light low

But things are so different since you went away

And now to me Christmas is just another day,



So don't wish me merry Christmas this year

For how could that ever be

Tell me how could Christmas be merry and bright

If you're not here with me?...
