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   Lookin' sort of 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   Lookin' sort of 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?      Oh, little Christmas tree   Lookin' sort of 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
