Merry, merry christmas baby, though you're with someone new
thought i'd send a card to say
wish this joyous holiday would find me close to you-ou-ou
Merry, merry christmas baby and a happy new year to-o-o
'twas a christmas eve we met, a holiday i won't forget
for that's when we fell in love
i still remember the gift you gave so-o-o-o dear
this love i hold within my heart from year to year though we're apart.
have a merry, merry christmas baby and a happy new year to-o-o
i am hoping that you'll find a love as true as mine
to last a lifetime through.
