Not all the gifts in bright lit windows, In all the Christmas shops in town, Shall I now choose, But prefer to sit in silence and reflect, On the joy you are to me . There is no present you can buy, Though you parcel up creation, That will bring more sparkle to my eye Than the love I have for you. I sing sweet carols under the stars And hymns by the Milky Way, And I am happy wandering, In dreams, to gently touch Your hand, your face, your eyes,your soul. And, contemplating bliss, a kiss, There is no happy Christmas if there is not this.
END.

The song “Melancholy Christmas” is a song about isolation and loneliness during the Christmas holiday season and highlights the need for connection with those living alone.

Melancholy Christmas.
I post another picture from the quiet of my room, And wonder who’ll like it and wonder what to do, With the rest of tonight and tomorrow tonight too. Christmas is coming soon. Coming soon. Maybe I’ll call up some friends, just to see if they’re home. I don’t want to feel lonely, but I’m here alone, And the snow falls down. Coming down. (Merry Christmas). You could come over, (Merry Christmas). It’s not too late, (Merry Christmas). Don’t worry ’bout presents, (Merry Christmas). I’ve saved you a place, (Merry Christmas). Light a few candles, (Merry Christmas). And sing Christmas songs, (Merry Christmas). Everybody, (Merry Christmas). Needs a place to belong, (Merry Christmas). It’s Christmas, (Merry Christmas). If you feel lonely, (Merry Christmas). I feel it too, (Merry Christmas). If nobody’s said it, (Merry Christmas). I’m wishing you, (Merry Christmas). Merry Christmas. Merry Christmas. Merry Christmas. Merry Christmas. Merry Christmas. Merry Christmas. Merry Christmas.
