Christmas Bells

LETRA

Christmas Bells

Daylight is fading, turn on the lights
I'm drinking daily into the night
The radio's playing that old song by Slade
So I sit here blazing, memories we made

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

Everyone's praying this year it's white
Radio's playing the same old tune

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

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 wrapping paper has been torn
Just like my heart when you left home

When the Christmas bells ring out (the bells ring out), they don't sound
Like they did every year you were here
When the mistletoe comes round (when it comes round), we don't kiss
Like we did all the years you were here
When the Christmas bells ring out (the bells ring out), they don't sound
Like they did every year you were here
When the mistletoe comes round (when it comes round), we don't kiss
Like we did every year you were here
When the Christmas bells ring out (the bells ring out), they don't sound
Like they did all the years that you were here
When the mistletoe comes round (when it comes round), we don't kiss
Like we did all the years you were here
