What Do the Lonely Do at Christmas? Lyrics

'Tis the season to be jolly
But how can I be when I have nobody
The yuletide carol doesn't make it better
Knowing that we won't be togetherA silent night, I know it's gonna be
Joy to the world but it's gonna be sad for meWhat do the lonely do at Christmas
Oh, what do the lonely do at Christmas timeThe children can play with their new toys
While their little hearts burst open with joy
And lovers can kiss beneath the mistletoes
The choirs can sing those glorious songs of oldBut what is left, oh, for me to do
Now that it's Christmas and I don't have youWhat do the lonely do at Christmas
Oh, what do the lonely do at Christmas timeOh, what do the lonely do at Christmas'
What do the lonely do at Christmas'
Oh, what do they do, what do they do at Christmas
Oh, what do they do, what do they do at ChristmasOh, what do the lonely do at Christmas'
What do the lonely do at Christmas'
Oh, what do they do, what do they do at Christmas
