Merry Christmas From An Empty Bed |
| That artificial Christmas tree my baby left behind |
| I told her when she brought it home it suited me just fine |
| I can’t believe one little lie still haunts me to this day |
| But what else can I say? |
| She’s the one that got away |
| The evergreen seems pointless for a tired old fool like me |
| The fake one more resembles now the man I’ve come to be |
| And anyway the slowly turning colors of the wheel |
| Reminds me how I feel |
| This really can’t be real |
| Red, yellow, green |
| Green, yellow, red |
| Merry Christmas from an empty bed |
| Outside my window all the streets are covered up with snow |
| Somehow I thought believing in our love would make it grow |
| And God knows faith can cover up a multitude of sins |
| But you wouldn’t let me in |
| I trim the tree again |
| In red, yellow, green |
| Green, yellow, red |
| Merry Christmas from an empty bed |
| So she learned to read my lies like tea leaves in a cup |
| And here it is, that time of year to put that thing back up |
| I guess I’ve grown accustomed to the artificial glow |
| And now she’ll never know |
| How much I loved her so |
| Red, yellow, green |
| Green, yellow, red |
| Merry Christmas from an empty bed |
