don’t ask me about Christmas
or where I’m gonna be
no I haven’t done my shopping
No I haven’t bought a tree

Oh all this red and green
It doesn’t quite mean the
same anymore
as it did once before
what if fairytales just make us sad now
Is a mark on a day
Really the best way
To look and to know we are glad now
so don’t ask me about Christmas
I’m not gonna tell you

it seems I’m not alone here
I’ve seen many rolling eyes
it’s cold and it’s too dark now
it feels good to share our sighs

Oh all this red and green
It doesn’t quite mean the
same anymore
as it did once before
what if fairytales just make us sad now
I promise I’ll try
But I’ll probably cry
All the good Christmases have been had now
so don’t ask me about Christmas
I’m not gonna tell youUuuu

But I do
And you too feel different
And maybe it wouldn’t be so bad
To sit by the fire, and be mad together

don’t ask me about Christmas
I know you never do
I will find my spirit
In waking up with you

Oh all this red and green
It doesn’t quite mean the
same anymore
as it did once before
Like all things tend to do over time
But what a beauty in sharing
In knowing and caring
Maybe that’s all it is
