Merry, merry Christmas baby, though you're with someone new
Thought I'd send a card to say
Wish this joyous holiday would find me close to you-ou-ou

Merry, merry Christmas baby and a Happy New Year to-o-o
'twas a Christmas Eve we met, a holiday I won't forget
For that's when we fell in love
I still remember the gift you gave so-o-o-o dear
This love I hold within my heart from year to year though we're apart.


Have a merry, merry Christmas baby and a Happy New Year to-o-o
I am hoping that you'll find a love as true as mine
To last a lifetime through.
