All I Ever Get for Christmas Is Blue [Live] Songtext
von Over the Rhine

Strings of lights above the bed
Curtains drawn and a glass of red
All I ever get for Christmas is blue

Saxophone on the radio
Recorded forty years ago
All I ever get for Christmas is blue

When you play my song
Play it slowly
Play it like I? m sad and lonely

Maybe you can solve my mystery
Wrap me in your arms and whisper
You miss me


Weatherman says it? s miserable
But the snow is so beautiful
All I ever get for Christmas is blue

It would take a miracle
To get me out to a shopping mall
All I really want for Christmas is you

Let them ring the bells
They won? t miss us
I? ll be drinking down your kisses

Deep into the night we? ll go stealing
Underneath a starry ceiling
Revealing

White lights on the Christmas tree
Thank God you are here with me
All I ever get for Christmas is blue

All I ever get for Christmas is blue
All I ever get for Christmas is blue
