If I could only have an hour of this holiday with you
We could sit and rap together, spinning records old and new
Have a little cake and a bit o' coke now and do the things we used to do

Jingle bells will all be ringing and little kids' eyes all aglow
Children strolling, singing carols, makin' tracks out in the snow
Oh, but I'll be with you this Christmas, maybe yes and maybe no

Christmas time is really joyful, oh, but it's a lonely season, too
Many people are so cheerful and some are alone and blue
What would make my Christmas happy if I could have it all alone with you

But if I just can't be with you, let me call you on the phone
I wanna tell you I still love you and how it feels to be alone
Wanna wish you a merry Christmas as the old year passes on
