She phones her mom
Says this time, she cannot come
Don't worry, I'm with friends this Christmas

Dad gets upset
But in time he soon forgets
Here comes another lonely Christmas

And I wanted to say to you
How much I want to be with you
I wanted to say to you
How much I need to be with you

And Christmastime comes once year
She knows this time he won't be near
