lyrics

the lights go up
my mood goes down
no holiday cheer
not enough to go around
the snowflakes fall
and cover the ground
these holiday blues
are bringing me down

as the jingle bells rock and the carolers sing
the more depressed i get and it can't just be me
the older i get the stranger it seems
that i seem to forget what this holiday means

i don't want pity i just want to feel
the same joy that you bring to the yuletide each year
i have stepped back and examined my heart
but i still don't feel cheerful
cheerful at all

as the jingle bells rock and the carolers sing
the more depressed i get and it can't just be me
the older i get the stranger it seems
that i seem to forget what this holiday means

i can see my breath
a sigh of relief
no matter how hard it gets
it's still bigger than me

as the jingle bells rock and the carolers sing
the more depressed i get and it can't just be me
the older i get the stranger it seems
that i seem to forget what he's given for me

as the jingle bells rock and the carolers sing
the more depressed i get and it can't just be me
the older i get the stranger it seems
that i seem to forget what this holiday means
