Lyrics
The decorations are strung out
All the shopping is done now
something's wrong here
His & Her stockings filled with painful memories
December of last year
you promised to be here
Westlake Center
Window shopping, arm & arm we carried on
Day dreaming while it snows
underneath mistletoe
Realize it couldve been special
Instead it's just another day
As I pass people laughing
holding hands and romancing
my stomach turns
I take a deep breath now and blame it all on me
I wish Santa could save me
from all of this misery
with fingers crossed
I make a promise I'll try to be a good boy
'tis the season for sharing
but I've long since stopped caring
Hey Bartender
Keep 'em coming. Ive got no place to be
Nobody wants to be alone on Christmas
Nobody wants to be alone
Nobody wants to be alone on Christmas
Nobody wants to be alone at Christmas time
I've had it up to here
with the constant reminders of togetherness and Christmas Cheer
and I want to be alone
but it kills me just to think about it knowing that nobody's home
