(Charles Brown/Gene Redd) Bells will be ringing the sad, sad news Oh, what a Christmas to have the blues My baby's gone and I have no friends To wish me greetings, once again. Choirs will be singing "Silent Night" Christmas carols by candlelight Please come home for Christmas, Please come home for Christmas If not for Christmas then by New Year's night. Friends and relations send salutations Sure as the stars shine above But this is Christmas, yes, Christmas my dear It's the time of year to be with the one you love. So won't you tell me you'll never more roam Christmas and New Year's will find you home There'll be no more sorrow, no grief or pain 'Cause I'll be happy, happy, once again. --- Instrumental --- There'll be no more sorrow, no grief and pain 'Cause I'll be happy 'cause it's Christmas once again...
