Christmas
Buble Michael Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'll have a blue Christmas without you
I'll be so blue just thinking about you
Decorations of red on a green Christmas tree
Won't be the same, dear, if you're not here with me

And when those blue, oh, snowflakes, are falling
That's when those blue memories start calling (hey)
You'll be doin' alright, with your Christmas of white
And I'll have a blue, blue, blue Christmas
(Oh, let's go, let's go)

(Woo)
(Alright J-man, let's go J)

And when those blue, oh, snowflakes, start falling
Well, that's when those blue ol' memories start calling
You'll be doin' alright, with your Christmas of white




And I'll, I'll have a blue, blue, blue, blue Christmas
Yes, I'll, I'll have a blue, oh, Christmas

The lyrics describe the emptiness and sadness that comes with spending Christmas without someone you love. The phrase “blue Christmas” is used to express the feeling of loneliness and sorrow, reinforced by the stark contrast between the traditional colors of Christmas, red and green, and the blue that represents the singer’s misery.

The repetition of the phrase “blue, blue, blue Christmas” adds emphasis to the emotions being felt.


In summary, “Blue Christmas” by Michael Buble is a poignant and heartfelt song that captures the essence of loneliness and longing during the holiday season.
