[Verse 1]
Every flight is grounded from New York to L.A.
"Snow is blowing, no one's going nowhere," so they say
Babies crying, mamas trying hard to get them home
This is Christmas, baby, when you're gone
[Verse 2]
Cookies in the oven are blackened underneath
And what's even more, a nail in the door where no one's hung a wreath
Sleigh bells on the radio have static in the sound
This is Christmas without you around
[Chorus]
No time like the present for a present from the tree
I don't want one, it ain't no fun without you here with me
[Verse 3]
And I'm not feeling warmer from the fireplace DVD
Burning flames and reindeer games keep playing on TV
Snow is staying, news is saying folks should just stay home
This is Christmas, without you, alone
[Chorus]
No time like the present for a present from the tree
I don't want one, it ain't no fun without you here with me
[Verse 4]
Standing under mistletoe with no one else around
Throwing snowballs without snowfall, nothing on the ground
Now it's evening, the tree is leaning, it's tumbling to the floor
[Outro]
Although you're kind of Jewish and our love is kind of new-ish
This Christmas isn't Christmas anymore
