Ain't No Time Of Year To Be Alone Lyrics - Singles - Mark Erelli

Saint Nick fell down the chimney right on cue 

With a big ole' bag of gifts for me and you 

I was cryin' by the Christmas tree with a bottle of Petrone 

This ain't no time of year to be alone 

He said, You look like hell, boy where's your better half? 

I said, She's gone and I don't think she's comin' back 

Did she have some last minute shoppin' just could not be postponed? 

This ain't no time of year to be alone 

Well, I got just one wish on my Christmas list 

Oh baby, how I wish 

You were here 

I want chestnuts roastin', good friends toastin' 

Health and happiness 

But it won't mean a thing without you dear 

He said, Christmas without love and tenderness 

Well, that's just a hollow holiday at best 

Son, it takes two to tango underneath that mistletoe 

This ain't no time of year to be alone, ah c'mon 

Oh, I got just one wish 

On my Christmas list 

I'd give anything to have you here with me 

I want yule logs, reindeer, egg nogg, good cheer 

Five golden rings 

Not Kris Kringle's singles therapy 

So me and old Saint Nick kicked back a few 

And we both agreed, he ain't no substitute for you 

And I heard him say as he pulled his sleigh back out into the cold 

This ain't no time of year to be alone, ohh 

This ain't no time of year to be alone
