[00:00.43]I hear sleigh bells ring
[00:06.56]But I haven’t heard a word from you in years
[00:16.95]I hear sleigh bells ringin’
[00:23.51]But I haven’t heard a word from you in years
[00:34.98]I hear choirs singin’
[00:40.58]And I’m just sittin’ here cryin’ Christmas tears
[00:45.91]
[00:52.81]Everybody’s singin’ “Merry Christmas”
[00:57.69]As they watch the starry sky filled with reindeer
[01:09.71]Everybody’s singin’ “Merry Christmas”
[01:14.89]As they watch the starry sky filled with reindeer
[01:28.18]I’m smilin’ on the outside
[01:32.87]But on the inside, I’m cryin’ Christmas tears
[01:39.08]
[01:43.26]Well you been gone (You been gone)
[01:48.14]For a long long time (You been gone)
[01:52.31]But it’s Christmas and I can’t get you off of my mind
[02:00.75]Yes, you been gone (You been gone)
[02:05.57]For a hundred years or more (You been gone)
[02:10.04]You came back and hang
[02:14.17]“Merry Christmas” on my door
[02:16.53]
[02:17.99]I need you baby
[02:22.73]To hold me tight
[02:28.60]I need ya darling
[02:31.01]On this Christmas night
[02:35.14]And as I sit and think of those long lonely years
[02:43.95]I can’t help but cry, oh, Christmas tears
