From the recording In A Cold World

Lyrics

VERSE
The Christmas holidays are all about the good times
When there’s so much to celebrate
But for him this time of year, it’s a hill to climb
He don’t know why, but he just can’t relate

VERSE
He’s feelin’ down and so stressed out
Every other moment is a moment of doubt
He’s runnin’ short of money, and he so wanted to buy
Some Christmas gifts; instead he cries

CHORUS
He understands all the reds and greens
That fit right in the holiday scenes
He knows he needs some help; not a moment to lose
He just can’t go on feelin’ these Christmas blues

VERSE
His head hurts to the touch, and he’s drinkin’ way too much
He’s feelin’ beat, but he can’t get to sleep
I know what he needs is a helping hand
Someone to guide him to the promised land

Repeat CHORUS/BRIDGE
What’s that he sees? A distant light?
Is help on the way? Could this be his silent night?

SOLO/Repeat CHORUS/TAG
He understands the reds and greens
But he needs to lose these Christmas blues
