Lyrics Christmas for the Blues - Rodney Crowell

Christmas for the Blues

I haven’t seen you round here since I don’t know when
It makes me stop and wonder just how long it’s been
The sight of you says nothing but good news
But you look like a Christmas for the blues
Seeing you reminds me of the way we were
Just standing here beside you makes the feeling stir
I can’t deny your leaving left a bruise
You look like a Christmas for the blues
I don’t have to ask if things are going well
Well as for me, well let’s just say
There’s not that much to tell
Once upon a time back when the world was young
With you I really thought I’d found the ladder’s rung
In life we learn to live and love and lose
You look like a Christmas for the blues
Everything about you says you’re doing fine
And I don’t have to ask you if the years have all been kind
I hate to say goodbye, I hope I’ll see you round
Maybe when the season starts to wind back down
I’d surely understand should you refuse
You look like a Christmas for the blues
You look like a Christmas for the blues
