Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'll be so blue, thinkin 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 snowflakes, start fallin,
Thats when those blue memories, start callin.
But ill have a blue, blue Christmas.
And when those blue snowflakes, start fallin,
Thats when those blue memories, start callin.
You'll be doin all right, with your Christmas of white,
But ill have a blue, blue Christmas.
But ill have a blue, blue Christmas.

Kate Davis is one tremendous musician! A laidback and yet totally engaging singing style. A concise bass style that precisely fits whatever Ms. Davis plays. Can you tell that I think Kate Davis is GREAT??

Dang, Chip's restraint and accuracy is crazy. Such a great drummer/percussionist.

Well done! They made this "not so crazy about" song to "i love it" song! They even coordinated so well, when to looked at Elvis and turned to Kate at a same time! How cute! Love the drummer too!
