Blame Jones Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Oh what a Christmas to have the blues
My baby′s gone, I have no friend
To wish me greeting, oh once again
S will be singing, oh "Silent Night"
Christmas Carol by candle light
Please come home for Christmas
And if not for Christmas, by New Year's Night
Friends and relations, send salutation
Sure, as the star shine above
But this is Christmas, yeah Christmas my dear
The time of the year to be with the one you love
Oh, won′t you tell me yeah you'll never roam
Christmas and New Year
Will find you at home
There'll be no more sorrow, no grief or pain
And I′ll be happy, happy once again
Oh, there′ll be no more sorrow, no grief or pain
And I'll be happy christmas once again
