Christmas Without Mary

Lyrics

Got a card in the mail today From some friends that moved away some time ago "Merry Christmas, happy holidays Hope this finds you both okay Love, John and Joan" There's children laughing in the snow Lovers holding mistletoe To steal a kiss There's decorations on the street Strangers smiling when they meet It's Christmas everywhere but here Christmas without Mary Won't be merry this year All those silver bells and Christmas carols Won't be bringing Yuletide cheer I'll just go through the motions But in my heart it won't feel right 'Cause Christmas without Mary Will just bе another silent night Therе's a present over there A gown I thought she'd love to wear Just for me I'd have loved to have seen her face When she saw that silken lace On Christmas Eve Wish I hadn't even bought a tree It's just there reminding me That I'm alone The colored lights of red and green Are the bluest that I've ever seen Since my Mary's gone Christmas without Mary Won't be merry this year All those silver bells and Christmas carols Won't be bringing Yuletide cheer I'll just go through the motions But in my heart it won't feel right 'Cause Christmas without Mary Will just be another silent night
