Happy holidays, the time of year with the shortest days
There's nothing I can do but sit and pray
For you to come back and be together again
Happy Christmas time, the time of year with the longest night
I think of you, I wish you still were mine
At this time I need you in my life
Underneath the mistletoe
You're not there for me to hold
Like poison ivy stings,
Your ghost haunts my dreams
It seems I'm far too gone and my memories
They won't let me be, I can't even sleep
Happy holidays, the time of year with the shortest days
There's nothing I can do but sit and pray
For you to come back and be together again
Happy Christmas time, the time of year with the longest night
I think of you, I wish you still were mine
At this time I need you in my life
I wanna shoo these blues away
Shoo these blues away
Bye bye blues, away
I wanna shoo these blues away
Staring out the window pane
Wishing this snowfall
Wouldn't make me feel this way
'Cause you're not around
To help me deck the halls
With boughs of holly I'm still
Oh, I'm still holding on, hoping you might call
Happy holidays, the time of year with the shortest days
There's nothing I can do but sit and pray
For you to come back and be together again
Happy Christmas time, the time of year with the longest night
I think of you, I wish you still were mine
At this time I need you in my life
I wanna shoo these blues away
Shoo these blues away
Bye bye blues, away
I wanna shoo these blues away
Happy holidays, the time of year with the shortest days
There's nothing I can do but sit and pray
For you to come back and be together again
Happy Christmas time, the time of year with the longest night
I think of you, I wish you still were mine
At this time I need you in my life
Shoo these blues away!
I wanna shoo, shoo these blues away
Ooh
