By the chimney
Are two stockings
One for you and one for me
But im waiting, anticipating
Decorating the tree
Pretty ribbons shiny paper
Should i wrap these gifts alone
'cause you told me very bodly
That you wont be home
CHORUS
Why can't you be here for Christmas
Why can't you ber here with me
With tears in my eyes
I ask has our love died
Why can't you be here for Christmas
On the sidewalk
Boys and girls walk
Arm in arm but your not here
Is my lover with another
For christmas this year
Im so lonely
For your holding
Underneath the mistletoe
How my heart aches
O dear God make my baby come home
(CHORUS)
Why can't you be here for Christmas (2x)
