Merry Christmas to Me

This time last year

We had a pretty, pretty Christmas tree

But now all I see is emptiness

Where those presents used to be

So I tell myself next year will be better

I know it has to be

I'll just stand here and look in this mirror

And say, "Merry Christmas" to me

Mmm-hmm

This time last year

I kissed your lips underneath that old mistletoe

But tonight my heart is as cold

As the freshly fallen snow

So I just tell myself next year will be better

Lord, I know, oh, it has to be

I'll just stand here and look in my mirror

And say, "Merry Christmas" to me

"Merry Christmas" to me

Mmm-hmm

This time next year

I wonder where, I wonder where you gonna be

Christmas time is so cold

But I know it's warm if you're right here holding me

So if you're listening, darling

I promise next year will be better

With you by my side

I know, I know it's got to be

I just wanna hear your sweet voice

Oh, saying "Merry Christmas" to me

Oh, "Merry Christmas" to me

"Merry Christmas" to me

"Merry Christmas" to me

"Merry Christmas" to me

Ooh

Oh, darling

I love you
