Story behind the song
I was lonely. It was Christmas. And my first love was gone, never to be seen again.
I still have the original 12", 8-track, reel-to-reel master, but no way to transfer it to another medium.
I plan to rewrite part of it later.
Lyrics
Lonely Christmas
Sittin' in this room... all alone
lookin' out through the window
watchin' the children
playin' in the snow
feelin' the warmth
of the lights from the Christmas tree
and wishin' that you
were here with me
Well..
It's a Lonely Christmas
without you
another Christmas spent at home
yes it's a
Lonely Christmas without you
another Christmas spent alone
Starin' at all the presents
beneathe the Christmas tree
I'd give them all away
to have you here with me
and as the night passes by
and the silence fills the room
I sit here thinking 'bout
all the times I've shared with you
(chorus)
I think about you every day
and I pray for you each night
I hope that everything for you
will turn out all right
and if you ever need me
I'll come and stand by your side
and I will never leave you
I will never say goodbye
