Lyrics
Can I just have one more Christmas Holiday with you?
With turkey, crackers, mistletoe and holly.
Open presents in our nightclothes like we used to do,
Please give me one more chance to say I'm sorry.
Without you here there seems no point in putting up the tree,
The one we bought for our first year together.
I cannot celebrate at all when you're not here with me,
I thought our Christmases would be forever.
I wonder what you thought about the flowers that I sent,
I hoped that they would stir up memories.
Cos every word inside the card I really, truly meant,
I can't go on when you're not here with me
So can I just have one more Christmas Holiday with you?
With turkey, crackers, mistletoe and holly.
Open presents in our nightclothes like we used to do,
Please give me one more chance to say I'm sorry.
So can I just have one more Christmas Holiday with you?
With turkey, crackers, mistletoe and holly.
Open presents in our nightclothes like we used to do,
Please give me one more chance to say I'm sorry.
The carol singers outside our front door just sung our song,
But I can't even open up the door,
If I can't have you back inside my arms where you belong
There's no Christmas in my heart any more.
If I can't have you back inside my arms where you belong
There's no Christmas in my heart any more.
