See the lights upon the tree,
9 o’clock on Christmas Eve,
Can you hear the silence fall like snow this Christmas?
Though we ought to be back home,
And there’s places we should go,
Oh I just don’t want to be alone on Christmas Eve.

So don’t leave me,
Don’t say “you’ll see”,
Oh I just don’t want to be alone on Christmas Eve.

Hear the Christmas church bells ring,
Now it’s midnight on the green,
And a choir of drunkards walking home with Christmas cheer,
Now it’s late and time’s slipped by,
And we ought to say goodnight,
But I just don’t want to be alone on Christmas Eve.

So don’t leave me,
Don’t say “you’ll see”,
Oh I just don’t want to be alone on Christmas Eve,
So don’t drive home,
Don’t turn to leave,
Cos’ I just don’t want to be alone on Christmas Eve.

See the lights upon the tree,
9 o’clock on Christmas Eve,
Oh I just don’t want to be alone this Christmas.
