Chuck Berry — Spending Christmas My Blue Christmas

If I could only spend this Christmas With those I love and long to see Somewhere where pretty lights are glowing Nowhere around the Christmas tree I help to wrap the Christmas presents And scrim the goodies under tree Help bake the cakes and roast the turkey Or sit with children while they play If I could only hear bells ringing Or just the sounding of a child Or walk with those who sing the carols Out in the snow in Christmas time But here the season's oh so lonely It twinkles through the blue What are these stars above I'm sending Of merry Christmas on to you
