Remember the time we swam naked in your father's pool?

Boy, he was upset that night but boy, was that ever cool

Remember the night we played pokeno for money

And you robbed me blind

Remember how you used to scream so loud
E B
'Cause you hated the number nine
[Verse 2]

Hey, I saw your sister skating on the lake this afternoon

Good Heaven, how she's grown

She swooned the boy skaters, she is so tall

But of all your father's children

All your father's children, baby

You know, you are the finest of them all

You are brighter than the northern star

My mammy used to say, "Always trust your lover."

Now I guess that only applies to her

Your father said it was pneumonia

Your mother said it was stress
B
But the doctor said you were dead and I
B
I say its senseless

Every Christmas night for seven years now

I drink banana daiquiris 'til I'm blind

As long as I can hear you smilin' baby

You won't hear my tears, another lonely Christmas is mine
B
Yeah, mine, yeah
B
Another lonely Christmas is mine
[Chorus]

Last night, yeah, I spent another lonely, lonely Christmas
