Little Christmas Tree lyrics

I watch the snowflakes fall

against my window pane.

And wonder if you

are watching snowflakes too.

I take a walk downtown,

to where you used to meet me.

There's joy everywhere

but all that's waiting there is...

...just a little Christmas tree.

Looking sorta sad

and lonely, just like me.

No one seems to care.

They just went away,

and left it standing there,

all alone on Christmas eve.

I hear the Christmas bells.

The happy people singing

the songs of good cheer,

that only brings me tears.

I sadly close my eyes

and say a little prayer.

"You'll be waiting there for me".

I look, but all I see is...

...just a little Christmas tree.

Looking sorta sad

and lonely, just like me.

No one seems to care.

They just went away,

and left it standing there,

all alone on Christmas eve.

This is the season of love,

but I'm as sad as I can be.

Why did you have to leave me?

(Why did you have to leave me?)

(Why did you have to leave me?)
