Lyrics
“Blue Christmas”
(from “Elvis (NBC TV Special)” soundtrack)
I’ll have a blue Christmas without you
I’ll be so blue just thinking about you
Decorations of red on our green Christmas tree
Won’t be the same dear, if you’re not here with meAnd when those blue snowflakes start fallin’
That’s when those blue memories start callin’
You’ll be doin’ all right, with your Christmas of white
But I’ll have a blue, blue, blue, blue Christmas
You’ll be doin’ all right, with your Christmas of white
But I’ll have a blue, blue, blue, blue ChristmasElvis Presley – Blue Christmas
