Christmas for the Blues Songtext
von Rodney Crowell

I haven′t seen you 'round here since I don′t know when
It makes me stop and wonder just how long it's been
The sight of you says nothing, but good news
But you look like a Christmas for the blues

Seeing you reminds me of the way we were
Just standing here beside you makes the feeling stir
I can't deny your leaving left a bruise
You look like a Christmas for the blues

I don′t have to ask if things are going well
Well, as for me, well, let′s just say there's not that much to tell


Once upon a time, back when the world was young
With you, I really thought I′d found the ladder's rung
In life, we learn to live, and love and lose
You look like a Christmas for the blues

Everything about you says you′re doing fine
And I don't have to ask you if the years have all been kind

I hate to say goodbye, I hope I′ll see you 'round
Maybe when the season starts to wind back down
I'd surely understand should you refuse
You look like a Christmas for the blues

Ah, you look like a Christmas for the blues
