Feigning joy and surprise
At the gifts we despise over mulled wine
With you
On the twenty-fifth day
Of the twelfth month, the sleigh bells are in time
Ringing true
How we cling each Noël
To that snowflake's hope in hell
That it won't end

Don't let the bells end
Christmastime, just let them ring in peace

Well, the weather is cruel
But this season of Yule warms the heart
But it still hurts
You've got your career
Spent the best part of last year apart
And it hurts
So that's why I pray
Each and every Christmas Day
That it won't end

Don't let the bells end
Christmastime, just let them ring in peace

(Christmastime, don't let the bells end)
(Christmastime, don't let the bells end)

Poised underneath the mistletoe leaf
When you're not here
You went away upon Boxing Day
Now, how the hell am I gonna make it into the New Year?

Christmastime, don't let the bells end
Christmastime, don't let the bells end
Christmastime, don't let the bells end
Christmastime, just let them ring in peace
(Come on kids!)
