sad and lonely christmas

merry christmas and a happy new year
is what I hear from people every day
they're trying to fill my life with cheer
but I wish they'd all just go away
'cause the only one I care to see
said she's never coming back to me
and it looks like it's going to be
a sad and lonely christmas

sad and lonely christmas

torn between being sad and annoyed
walking around with my head in the clouds
I just can't seem to avoid
the over anxious holiday crowds
pushing and shoving all over the place
I'm growing tired of the human race
and it looks like I'm doomed to face
a sad and lonely christmas

sad and lonely christmas

everyone seems to demand
I behave in a festive way
I know they'd have to understand
if they could be me for just one day

so here I stay waiting all alone
for the end of my misery
and the one I thought I'd call my own
pacing back and forth impatiently
but she's never walking through that door
I don't know what I bother for
and I guess I'll see one more
sad and lonely christmas

sad and lonely christmas

decorations everywhere but I just can't bring myself to care on a sad and lonely christmas
