It's Christmas Without You
Christmas Blues: Nostalgia and Longing in 'It's Christmas Without You'
Lyrics
Another night of old regrets
Feeling remorseful about past mistakes and choices
Old Christmas cards and cigarettes
Reflecting on old Christmas cards and the comfort of cigarettes
I can't forget
Unable to erase memories from the mind
it's Christmas without you
Expressing the void felt during Christmas without a significant person
Another night of memories
Nostalgic night filled with recollections
Old St. Nick is on tv
Noticing Santa Claus on television, triggering emotions
Reminding me
Being reminded of the absence of a loved one during Christmas
it's Christmas without you
Reiterating the emotional impact of Christmas without a special person
All the pretty city lights
Observing festive lights in the city
Twinkling red and green tonight
Describing the city lights in traditional Christmas colors
I can only see them as blue
Perceiving the lights with a sense of sadness or melancholy
I won't find much cheer
Expressing a lack of joy until the arrival of the new year
until the new year
Linking the anticipation of cheer to the approaching new year
Cause baby it's Christmas without you
Reiterating the central theme: Christmas is incomplete without the loved one
All the pretty city lights
Repeating the description of city lights in traditional colors
They're twinkling red and green tonight
Emphasizing the contrast between festive lights and personal feelings
But I can only see them as blue
Reiterating the perception of lights with a touch of sadness
And I'd love to say
Expressing the desire to convey holiday wishes despite personal feelings
have a happy holiday
Acknowledging the challenge of expressing happiness during the holiday season
But Baby it's Christmas
Stating the central theme: Christmas is not the same without the loved one
Baby it's Christmas
Repeating the emphasis on the emotional impact of Christmas without the loved one
Baby it's Christmas without you
Finalizing the sentiment that Christmas feels incomplete without the significant person
