Lyrics Lonely Christmas - The Orioles

Lonely Christmas

Verse 1, ST:
It’s gonna be a lonely Christmas./
Jus' won’t be a ho-oliday./
I’ll sit here in my room an' cry,/
Because you ((went an' took your loving away.))
Verse 2, ST:
It’s gonna be a sad, sad occasion,/
'Cause this time I know there won’t be,/
Presents wrapped in any fancy paper,/
On the ((branches of my Christmas Tree.))
Chorus, ST:
Last year was fine 'cause your love was mine./
An' I knew you’d come when I call./
This year I’ll be blue an' lonely lis’ning to,/
((The music from the party)) 'cross the hall
Verse 3, ST:
I could have the Christmas spirit, /
Every day the whole year through./
If you would send the Christmas gift I long for./
Darling, tell me once more, «I love you."/
Chorus, with style changes, GN:
Last year was fine 'cause your love was mine./
An' I knew you come when I call./
This year I be blue an' lonely lis’en to,/
((The music from the party)) 'cross the hall
Verse 3, repeated with word and style changes, ST:
Well, I could have the Christmas feeling,/
Every day the whole year through./
If you would send the Christmas gift I long for
Darling, tell me once more, «I lo-ove you.»
(Ooo, ooo-ooo.)
