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.
