(Without My Mary) It Won't Be A Merry Christmas

(WITHOUT MY MARY) IT WON'T BE A MERRY CHRISTMAS

I was standing there waiting for that girl of mine
December 24th, I was right on time
Where's my Mary - she said she'd be on that Greyhound bus
Without my Mary, it won't be a Merry Christmas

I hung all my hope on the Christmas tree
But Santa didn't bring my present to me
Where's that Mary
I'm losing faith now, who can I trust?
Without my Mary, it won't be a Merry Christmas

I had visions of love dancing in my head
A nice warm fire and a king-size bed
We'd have all night to get there and no place to go
But here I am drowning in this falling snow

Carol sang a song, tried to ease my mind
Holly gave a wreath, but I'm still cryin'
Now where's my Mary
My friends think I'm making such a fuss
Without my Mary, it won't be a Merry Christmas

SOLO

I've got visions of love dancing in my head
A nice warm fire and a king-size bed
We'd have all night toget there and no place to go
But here I am drowning in this falling snow

December 25th, I finally saw the sign
She came into the station on a different line
There's my Mary - now it's happy holidays for us
'Cos without my Mary, it wouldn't be a Merry Christmas
No, no
Without my Mary, it won't be a Merry Christmas
