Hang the holly on the door just the way we did before But don't hang the mistletoe this year When you decorate the tree hang a special star for me But don't hang the mistletoe this year Christmas eve you'll hang your stocking by the chimmny with care And if the Lord above be willing, next year I'll be there And may Christmas fill your heart but because we'll be apart But don't hang the mistletoe this year Christmas eve you'll hang your stocking by the chimmny with care And if the Lord above be willing, next year I'll be there And may Christmas fill your heart but because we'll be apart But don't hang the mistletoe this year
