[Intro]
Ooh
[Verse 1]
The fire is burning
The room's all aglow
Outside the December wind blows
Away in the distance
The carolers sing in the snow
Everybody's laughing
The world is celebrating
And everyone's so happy
Except for me tonight because
[Chorus]
I miss you
Most at Christmas time
And I can't get you
Get you off my mind
Every other season
Comes along and I'm alright
But then I miss you
Most at Christmas time
Ooh, yeah, mmm
[Verse 2]
I gaze out the window
This cold winter's night
At all of the twinkling lights
Alone in the darkness
Remembering when you were mine, yeah
Everybody's smiling
The whole world is rejoicing
And everyone's embracing
Except for you and I, baby
[Chorus]
I miss you
Most at Christmas time
And I can't get you, no, no, no, no
Get you off my mind
Every other season
Comes along and I'm alright
But then I miss you, oh
Most at Christmas time, oh
[Verse 3]
In the springtime
Those memories start to fade
With the April rain
Through the summer days
'Til Autumn's leaves are gone
I get by without you
'Til the snow begins to fall and then
[Chorus]
I miss you
Most at Christmas time
And I can't get you, no, no, no, no
Get you off my mind
Every other season
Comes along and I'm alright
But then I miss you
Most at Christmas time
Ooh
Ooh
[Verse 1]
The fire is burning
The room's all aglow
Outside the December wind blows
Away in the distance
The carolers sing in the snow
Everybody's laughing
The world is celebrating
And everyone's so happy
Except for me tonight because
[Chorus]
I miss you
Most at Christmas time
And I can't get you
Get you off my mind
Every other season
Comes along and I'm alright
But then I miss you
Most at Christmas time
Ooh, yeah, mmm
[Verse 2]
I gaze out the window
This cold winter's night
At all of the twinkling lights
Alone in the darkness
Remembering when you were mine, yeah
Everybody's smiling
The whole world is rejoicing
And everyone's embracing
Except for you and I, baby
[Chorus]
I miss you
Most at Christmas time
And I can't get you, no, no, no, no
Get you off my mind

Most at Christmas time
Ooh
