Michael Bublé Feat. The Puppini Sisters 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
When those blue oh-snowflakes, are falling
That's when those blue memories, start calling (hey)
You'll be doin' alright, with your Christmas in white
And I'll have a blue blue blue Christmas
(Oh let's go, let's go)

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

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




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

Dashing through the snow
In a one horse open sleigh
O'er the fields we go
Laughing all the way
Bells on bob tail ring
Making spirits bright
What fun it is to ride and sing
A sleighing song tonight

Jingle bells, j-jingle bells
Jingle all the way
Oh, what fun it is to ride
In a one horse open sleigh
Jingle bells, j-j-j-jingle bells
Jingle all the way
Oh, what a lotta fun, what a lotta fun to ride and sing
In a one horse open sleigh
